| 总结: | Contrary to the standard scholarly assumption, the OT conception of the universe is bipartite ("heaven and earth"), not tripartite, and all other OT descriptions of the world can be subsumed under the two realms of heavenly and earthly. While this cosmology is not as technical and precise as our modern sensibilities might desire, we can still discern a consistent OT Weltbild, one that is fundamentally dualistic. This dualistic Weltbild, in turn, undergirds a dualistic Weltanschauung or worldview. The basic duality of the physical structure of the world matches the ontological dualism between God in the heavenly realm and humanity in the earthly, all the while playing on a beautiful ambiguity in the use of the term "heaven." |
