Pithom en Raämses
*Dit is de tekst van een lezing gegeven voor de studenten en docenten van de theologische faculteit van de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen op studiereis in Egypte d.d. 10 januari 1988.
Als hulp bij het lezen van dit artikel vindt men twee kaartjes. Fig. 1 ‘De traditionele en moderne lokaties van de exodus’ (overgenomen uit Bietak, Tell el-Dabca II, 221 afb. 45, vgl. noot 17) en Fig. 2 ‘Het gebied van de Ramses-stad’ (overgenomen uit Bietak, Lexikon der Aegyptologie V, cols. 137-138). Verder twee schema’s: Fig. 3 ‘Overzicht van de Egyptische chronologie’ met de rijken, dynastieën en farao’s, die in dit artikel worden genoemd. Deze chronologie volgt die van E. Hornung, Grundzüge der Aegyptischen Geschichte, Darmstadt 19782, 159-165. Tenslotte Fig. 4 ‘Vergelijking van de Egyptische, bijbelse, antieke en moderne namen’ van de belangrijkste plaatsen, die in dit artikel ter sprake komen.
Door M. DijkstraAbstractOn the basis of recent archeological research in the eastern Delta of Egypt the names and locations of the store-cities Pithom and Raamses mentioned in Exodus 1:11, are in all probability identifiable with the Pharaonic cities Pr-Itm n Mr.n-pth and Pr-Rc-ms-sw-mry-Imn, at present buried in the sites Tell el-Ratabe and Tell el-Dabca/Qantir. These two toponyms are not anachronisms, but original and historically authentic elements from the tradition concerning the forced labour of the Hebrews in Egypt.

Jews and Christians in Aphrodisias in the Light of their Relations in Other Cities of Asia Minor
Door P.W. van der HorstAbstractIn this article the author argues on the basis of new evidence that the late success of Christianity in the city of Aphrodisias and in the province of Caria in general may be due to the very strong position Judaism had built up there and to a Jewish-pagan coalition, forms of which are found also elsewhere in Asia Minor.

God’s Goodness and Human Morality
*An earlier version of this paper was presented as a lecture at the University of Utrecht in May 1988 as part of the academic link between the Faculty of Theology at Utrecht and the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies at King’s College London.
Door Christoph SchwöbelAbstractThis paper starts from the awareness of a crisis of moral reflection which some moral philosophers interpret as symptoms of the emancipation of Western morality from its theistic past. This leads to the discussion of Iris Murdoch’s proposal to provide a resolution for the dilemmas of modern morality by focusing moral reflection on ‘the Good’ as the unitary, perfect, non-representable and necessarily real object of attention. In contrast to this conception I suggest that goodness should not be understood as an absolute value replacing the concept of God, but as an attribute of God. I attempt to show how goodness can be predicated of God on the basis of his trinitarian action as it is expressed in the discourse of faith in the Christian church. In this framework goodness is described as a relational predicate which refers to God’s goodness as the condition for the possibility of all created goodness. The paper concludes with some suggestions how the virtues, norms and values of human morality could be interpreted in such a conception.
