‘De waarachtige en niet met handen gemaakte God’
More LessAbstract A recently published Greek altar-inscription from Asia Minor with the dedication theōi apseudei kai acheiropoiētōi most probably is to be regarded, on the basis of the terminology used (especially acheiropoiētos), as an inscription of a so-called Godfearer, i.e., a pagan sympathizer with Judaism, who erected this private altar for the God of Israel.

Genesis 27, Het bedrog van Jakob
More LessAbstract The tale of the deceit of Jacob should be interpreted against the background of the struggle in Israel between Yhwh and Baal. Especially some chapters of Hosea make it clear that Genesis 27 does not contain a story about a controversy in the house of Isaac, but elucidates rather some fundamental aspects of the history of Israel-Efraim. The fraud of Rebecca and her son reflects one of the most persistent and disp Read More

Secondly, the author offers various examples of midrashic interpretations of Joseph stories from early Jewish Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek literature. It is obvious that Joseph is characterized as tsa Read More

De absolute en geordineerde macht van God
More LessAbstract This article offers a survey of the semantic and hermeneutic vicissitudes of the medieval distinction between God’s potentia absoluta and potentia ordinata. It shows that a crucial shift in the theological use of the distinction between the two potentiae was initiated by Scotus, mitigated by Ockham, but taken to extremes in 14th and 15th century radically nominalist circles. Instead of continuing to function as a transcend Read More

The rationality of ideologies and religions
More Less1This paper is based on a series of lectures given at the University of Utrecht in October 1990. I wish to thank prof .dr Vincent Brümmer and his seminar in philosophy of religion for many fruitful questions and comments.
Abstract The aim of this article is to develop a criterion for deciding when it is rational to adhere to an ideology or a religion. Various views on the rationality of religions are discussed, and a structural view on ideologies and religions is developed. The view is then defended that it is rational to adhere to an ideology or religion only if it can serve to create and sustain values. For this purpose a utopian concept of human life is req Read More
