《出埃及記》二章是摩西出生、成長及流亡的敘事與「摩西傳」的起頭,是一個獨特但卻在神學討論中長期被忽略的文本。本文採用「隱含神學」的進路,探討上帝在本章中的隱匿在場,以及摩西作為流亡者的敘事與神學意涵。執迷於男性氣概的法老反諷地被一系列女性角色顛覆。摩西三次介入受壓迫者的處境,奠定其解放者身份,並以其「小出埃及記」經歷成為以色列民族出埃及的預演。作為日後頒佈律法的最偉大的先知,摩西在本章中卻始終經歷着在希伯來、埃及和米甸之間的空間、身份及自我想象的遊移與「無國籍」狀態,突顯了流散與拯救的聖經神學主題的深刻關聯。綜合這些視角,本文旨在展示這一文本的豐富層次與廣闊的詮釋學價值。
Exodus 2 narrates the birth, growth, and exile of Moses, yet throughout the story, except for the conclusion, God neither appears nor is explicitly mentioned. This absence makes it a unique yet long-overlooked text in theological discussions on Exodus. This study adopts an "implicit theology" approach to explore the concealed presence of God in this chapter, as well as the narrative and theological significance of Moses as an exile. This article analyzes how the text conveys theological meaning through female characters, narrative structure, and symbolic devices. Pharaoh's genocidal policy underscores his obsession with masculinity, yet it is ironically subverted by a series of female figures. On the other hand, Moses intervenes three times in situations of oppression, thus establishing his identity as a liberator, and prefiguring the Israel's national exodus through his own "mini-Exodus" experience. Despite being the greatest prophet who would later lead the Israelites out of Egypt and receive the Law, Moses in this chapter constantly experiences spatial, identity, and self-imaginative shifts between Hebrew, Egyptian, and Midianite affiliations, highlighting the deep connection between exile and salvation in biblical theology. Through close textual analysis, this study reveals how Moses's personal experience serves as a microcosm of the Exodus narrative and offers a theological perspective on contemporary issues of exile, identity, and migration.
