Title | Die rol van die priester in die ‘troonopvolgingsgeskiedenis’ | |
Creator | Lion-Cachet, F. N. | |
Description | The so-called 'Succession Narrative' or ’Court History' (2 Sam. 9-10 and 1 Kings 1-2) bears very little testimony to the role of the priests. This article represents an attempt to examine the position of little priestly community, the priestly office-bearers and their office, the pail played by the priests in the crowning of the king and the fulfillment of their office to determine the role of the priests in the history of revelation ('theology') as seen in the Succession Narrative. It will become clear that the priestly order was indeed not very prominent and that there were many shortcomings. This however, was part of the fulfillment of God’s covenant promises that there would be a successor to David. Wiile God did not specifically use the priests in the succession to David’s throne, the priests were not ignored in the revelation since their presence and their officiating emphasized the presence of the Lord. | |
