La Mère de Jésus dans l'oeuvre de saint Jean (théologie)
Écrit par BRAUN François-Marie

Father Jean-Vincent Scheil (born 10 June 1858, Kœnigsmacker – died 21 September 1940, Paris) was a French Dominican scholar and Assyriologist. He is credited as the discoverer of the Code of Hammurabi in Persia. In 1911 he came into possession of the Scheil dynastic tablet and first translated it.

Né à Vallauris, où son père était potier, Jean Bottéro entre au petit séminaire de Nice avant d'entamer son noviciat au couvent dominicain de Biarritz en 1931. Il prend l'habit en 1932 et vit au prieuré de Saint-Maximin, où il s'intéresse à la théologie et à la métaphysique. Il est distingué par le père Marie-Joseph Lagrange, le fondateur de l’École biblique de Jérusalem, qui discerne sa vocation à l’exégèse et à l’archéologie.

Retour à l'état laïc[modifier | modifier le code]
Il enseigne la philosophie grecque, l'hébreu puis l'exégèse biblique à Saint-Maximin, mais est suspendu alors qu'il refuse de créditer la Genèse d'un certificat d'historicité. Il s'installe alors dans un couvent dominicain parisien, poursuit ses recherches par l'étude de l'akkadien et traduit avec René Labat le Code de Hammurabi.

Interdit de retour à Saint-Maximin, où sa présence est considérée comme « un danger pour les jeunes », Bottéro intègre le CNRS en 1947 et est contraint à demander sa « réduction à l'état laïc » en 1950.

The Oxford Handbook of Early Christian Biblical Interpretation

This book defends the reasonableness of believing that Jesus of Nazareth rose from the dead. It mounts both historical arguments and theological arguments. There are only two alternatives as a historical matter: either Jesus actually rose from the dead, or else his bereaved disciples saw hallucinatory visions and were fooled by them. Indebted to N. T. Wright, this book argues that historical evidence points to the former scenario. The Gospels were backed by eyewitnesses who were living and telling their stories even during the time of the writing of the Gospels. In addition, “history” is not a neutral category; to know what history actually is, it is necessary to know whether or not there is a Creator God who loves his creatures. Furthermore, there is every reason to consider the Scriptures of Israel to belong to the background evidence by which scholars and inquirers evaluate the credibility of the testimony to Jesus’ Resurrection. The historical evidence for this event will be more credible to those who cultivate an ability to contemplate the whole. The book also addresses the question of why, after Jesus rose from the dead, he did not continue to show himself in his glorified flesh. Jesus’ entire mission is predicated upon helping us to avoid cleaving to the present world over God. He is leading us to where he is—the kingdom of God, the beginning of the new creation at the Father’s right hand.

From the last: We find here the elements of *Christian materialism*, which,
instead of wishing to suppress matter which has revolted against the spirit
through the effect of sin, gives it the place the Creator assigned to it,
and discovers the way which Christ opened for it [matter!] by transfiguring
it and by deifying it in his own body.

Worth a look!
