One of the patriarchs of Israel. According to the Book of Genesis in the Old Testament, he is the son of Abraham and the father of Esau and Jacob. In particular, "The Offering of Isaac" (Chapter 22), "The Selection of a Bride" (Chapter 24), "The Sojourn in Gerar" (Chapter 26), and "The Blessing of Jacob" (Chapter 27) well tell the story of Isaac's life and faith. His name "Isaac" means "laughter" and comes from the various laughs that occurred before and after his birth. His parents hear God's promise that they will have a child and smile bitterly at their advanced age (Chapter 17, verse 17; Chapter 18, verse 12). His mother Sarah gives birth to Isaac and laughs with joy, but at the same time she is concerned about the public's ridicule of her advanced age at giving birth (Chapter 21, verse 6). Incidentally, Kierkegaard reflects on the issues of faith surrounding the offering of Isaac in his book Fear and Trembling.

イスラエルの族長の一人。『旧約聖書』の「創世記」によれば、アブラハムの息子で、エサウおよびヤコブの父とされる。なかでも「イサク奉献」(22章)、「嫁選び」(24章)、「ゲラル逗留(とうりゅう)」(26章)および「ヤコブ祝福」(27章)は、イサクの生涯と信仰についてよく物語っている。「イサク」の名は「笑い」の意を有し、彼の誕生前後のさまざまな笑いに由来する。両親は、神から子授けの約束を聞き、自分たちの高齢を思って苦笑する(17章17、18章12)。母サラは、イサクを産んで喜び笑い、同時に高齢出産に対する世間のもの笑いを気にする(21章6)。ちなみにキルケゴールは、彼の著書『おそれとおののき』のなかで、イサク奉献をめぐり信仰の諸問題について省察する。 [定形日佐雄] [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
