摘要

本文以創4:1詮釋為例，探討宗教改革時期希伯來文的研究。本文將探詢宗教改革時期，尤其是路德與加爾文，依據甚麼語言學的資源詮釋這段經文。儘管創4:1看起來不顯眼，然而其釋經與神學上的爭論，足以代表宗教改革時期對希伯來聖經塔納赫閱讀的研究，並以路德及加爾文為例，說明宗教改革時期詮釋學的張力。前者以其特有、基督論為中心片面詮釋創4:1，而後者則參酌了猶太的釋經傳統，是唯一試圖提出與前者不同觀點的改革者。

The present paper examines the condition of Hebrew studies in the Age of the Reformation as typified by the controversy over Gen 4:1 and thus it is an enquiry into linguistic resources accessible to the Reformers, predominantly to Luther and Calvin, who were engaged in the discussion about that phrase. Despite Gen 4:1 apparent inconspicuousness, the exegetical and theological controversy over the verse encapsulates the state of Hebrew studies in the Age of the Reformation and illustrates a hermeneutical tension over the Reformation reading of the Tanakh which can be exemplified by Luther and Calvin. The former propounded an idiosyncratic interpretation of Gen 4:1 and his approach to the Hebrew Bible was one-sided, while the latter was the only Reformer who ventured to distance himself from Luther's claims touching Gen 4:1 and who attempted to interpret the Tanakh, paying heed to the Jewish exegetical tradition in its own right.
