Le texte qui nous avait fait entendre l’initiative des hommes va maintenant se focaliser sur l’action de Yahvé, le dieu d’Israël, qui descend faire un tour à Babel. Mais pour quelles raisons agit-il ainsi ?
Avec le 3e épisode de cette série, nous allons aborder, gravir serait plus juste, la tour de Babel. Enfin ! penseront certains. Il est vrai que la tour de Babel possède un véritable atour, l’atour de Babel, suscitant un véritable d’engouement.
L’épisode de Babel se déroule dans la vallée lointaine de Shinéar : Babel l’oued, pour le jeu de mot, non celle près d’Alger, mais celle d’une vallée de Mésopotamie.
Beaucoup, même sans avoir ouvert une bible, ont entendu parler de « la tour de Babel ». Pour ce premier épisode, j’évoque les expressions liées à ce passage biblique, et les interprétations les plus courantes. Mais que raconte exactement ce texte biblique (Genèse 11,1-9) ?
Il faut faire attention à une lecture trop lisse et linéaire, de cette période soutenue par le livre d’Esdras et Néhémie. Les faits sont plus complexes et montrent la diversité du Judaïsme à cette époque.
En 398, Esdras, missionné par le roi Artaxerxès II, vient à Jérusalem afin, de promouvoir le culte de Yahvé, et promulguer la Loi de Moïse destinée au peuple du Dieu d’Israël. Mais pour quelles raisons et de quelle Loi est-il question ?
En 445, Néhémie reçoit la mission de restaurer les remparts de Jérusalem. Il devra se confronter à une opposition certains notables à Samarie, comme à Jérusalem.
Que deviennent Noé et le déluge aujourd’hui ? Regard sur quelques adaptations : Noé (film de D. Aronofsky), La prophétie des grenouilles (Animation de J.R. Girerd), Noé (BD de David Ratte), Evan Tout-Puissant (T. Shadyac), etc.
Le déluge est à jamais fini, et commence une autre aventure, ou plutôt mésaventure, pour notre héros. Ces versets sont, en quelque sorte, l’épilogue de l’histoire.
