《圣经》的跨文化元典意义

希伯来《圣经》记载了希伯来(犹太)民族早期所经历的游牧式的文化迁徙及其对周边异质文化的采借、融合和冲突。作为一个跨文化的文化元典,《圣经》的跨文化思想资源表现在它的一神论思想和单种论学说,也表现在它的民族学思维,特别是《圣经》对世界主义与民族主义意识的交织融合,是《圣经》跨文化思想和思想方式的特质所在。《圣经》的跨文化意义表现在它在元典传承中的超神学价值、普世意义、丰富的思想方法论价值和科际整合视野,以及它所显示的突出的现代性和前沿性上。《圣经》的跨文化元典意义对于反思全球化时代的文明冲突和文化难题,不无启示。

The Intercultural Meta-code Significance of the Bible

The Hebrew Bible records the nomadic cultural migration that the Hebrew nation underwent at their early stage and the adoption, integration and conflicts of the heterogeneous cultures of the surrounding countries and areas. As an intercultural meta-code, The Bible's resources of intercultural thinking find expression in its idea of monotheism and single-race theory and also in its ethnological thought. And in particular, the interwinding or mingling of cosmopolitanism and a national consciousness is just the particular feature of the Bible's intercultural thinking and its thinking mode. Its intercultural significance is expressed in the sur-theological value, universal meaning, its rich ideological and methodological value and its vision of interdisciplinary integration in the course of meta-code inheritance and especially in its modernness and its frontier nature. Its meta-code significance presents a kind of enlightenment to our reflections on the civilization conflicts and cultural problems in this globalized era.
