Zusammenfassung:In this study, Ogochukwu Daniel Onuorah applies the tools of the social memory theory to the analysis of Ex 16. He argues that the collective memory of the manna-experience in Ex 16 served as a socio-theological tool of identity preservation for the Israelites in the difficult exilic/early post-exilic period.
Ogochukwu Daniel Onuorah wendet die Werkzeuge der Theorie des sozialen Gedächtnisses auf die Analyse von Ex 16 an. Er argumentiert, dass die kollektive Erinnerung an die Manna-Erfahrung in Ex 16 als soziotheologisches Instrument der Identitätserhaltung in der schwierigen Zeit des Exils/frühen Post-Exils diente.
The destruction of the Temple and the humiliation of the exile not only shook the foundations of Israels pride as Gods chosen people, but also brought about the danger of losing their identity as a people. To survive this, the people had to develop and highlight an identity-reinforcing theology built upon the collective memory of their constitutive past. Ogochukwu Daniel Onuorah applies the tools of the social memory theory to the exegetical analysis of Ex 16, an approach which necessarily entails both synchronic and diachronic inquiries. In six chapters, the author argues that the collective memory of the manna-experience as recounted in Ex 16 served as a socio-theological tool of identity-preservation in the difficult exilic/early post-exilic period. Succinctly noted also are the implications of this for the discussion on the composition of the Pentateuch.Survey of contentsIntroductionChapter I: General ExpositionsChapter II: Exodus 16 - Unity in ComplexityChapter III: The Bread from HeavenChapter IV: The Sabbath and the MemorialisationChapter V: »Throughout Your Generations«Chapter VI: Social Memory in Ex 16 and Quest for IdentityConclusion
