Philosophical Interpretations of the Old Testament Sekine, Seizo De Gruyter 2014年01月 978-3-11-034076-1 英語 単行本（学術書） Western biblical studies have tended to follow either faith-based theological approaches or value-free historical-critical methods. This monograph challenges the two extremes by pursuing the middle path of philosophical hermeneutics. While drawing on Eastern and Western philosophical writings from ancient to modern times, the author proposes original interpretive solutions to a wide range of important biblical texts, including the Akedah, Second Isaiah, the Decalogue, Qohelet, Job, and Jeremiah. Yet, this is not a collection of antiquarian studies. Readers will also gain fresh and stimulating perspectives concerning monotheism, religious faith and identity, suffering and salvation, and modern and postmodern ethics. Finally, in a supplementary essay, the author introduces readers to the history of Old Testament studies in Japan, and he outlines prospects for the future.
The Surprising Election and Confirmation of King David Short, J. Randall Harvard Divinity School 2010年09月 0674053419 英語 単行本（学術書） Some of the best-known biblical episodes are found in the story of David’s rise to kingship in First and Second Samuel. Why was this series of stories included in the Bible?
An answer that has become increasingly popular is that this narrative should be interpreted as the “apology of David,” that is, the personal justification of King David against charges that he illegitimately usurped Saul’s throne. Comparisons between “the History of David’s Rise” and the Hittite “Apology of Hattušili,” in particular, appear to support this view that the biblical account belongs to the genre of ancient Near Eastern royal apology.
Having presented this approach, Randall Short argues that the biblical account has less in common with the Hittite apology than scholars have asserted, and he demonstrates how interpretive assumptions about the historical reality behind the text inform the meaning that these scholars discern in the text. His central contention is that this story should not be interpreted as the personal exoneration of David composed to win over suspicious readers. Rather, composed for faithful readers represented by David, the story depicts the dramatic confirmation of David’s surprising election through his gradual emergence as the beloved son of Jesse, Saul, all Israel, and yhwh Himself.

The Heart of Contribution in Christianity J. Randall Short 貢献する気持ち研究レポート 1～ 12 2011年12月 査読有り 依頼有り 英語 研究論文（研究会,シンポジウム資料等） キリスト教思想の中心的なテーマを扱った論文として、2011年にホモコントリビューエンス研究会（代表者加藤尚武）に提出した論文。滝久雄（グルナビの創業者）が『貢献する気持ち』という本を書き、現代の道徳に「貢献心」が必要だという提案をしたことをきっかけに、加藤尚武は思想史の各分野から貢献する気持ちがどう扱われているかを論ずる論文集を企画し、公開した。キリスト教における貢献心という挑戦的テーマを与えられた私は、東方正教会、カトリック、そしてプロテスタントが共通とする「貢献心」を探り、それは教会歴や典礼において、特にキリストの受肉・受難・復活を中心として養われている「記憶」（anamnesis）から生まれているのではないかと論じた。
The Story of David’s Rise as Political Apology: A Reconsideration J. Randall Short Th.D. Dissertation 2006年05月 査読有り 英語 学位論文 Modern biblical scholars have increasingly characterized the story of David’s rise to kingship as stemming from an originally independent and unified source that was composed in the Jerusalemite royal court for the purpose of legitimizing David’s usurpation of Saul’s throne. Scholars have made this case for interpreting “the History of David’s Rise” (HDR) as royal propaganda through comparisons of it with other ancient Near Eastern royal texts, particularly the Hittite “Apology of Hattušili.” Furthermore, they have detected in HDR a rhetorical posture that addresses several underlying or implied charges of illegitimacy and lèse-majesté against the historical David. Inasmuch as these scholars believe that the original HDR remained essentially unchanged throughout its literary history, they interpret the biblical account in terms of the apologetic needs of King David.
In this dissertation, I contend that these recent characterizations of HDR as “the Apology of David” fail to make adequate sense of many literary and theological features and particularities of the biblical account. My contention is not that the story of David’s rise to kingship was never used for any sort of “apologetic” purposes, but that the biblical account—at any point in its literary history—cannot be so easily assimilated to the genre of ancient Near Eastern “royal apology” and basically reduced to “political self-justification” or “secular, political ideology,” as some scholars have characterized it. Ultimately, this approach leads to unsatisfactory results even for versions of HDR that have been reconstructed according to these historical and literary assumptions. Reading through the lens of political apology is all the more inadequate, then, vis-à-vis the present biblical account.
Within the biblical context of 1 and 2 Samuel, I argue, YHWH’s initial election of David is not simply one of several legitimizing themes or motifs in “David’s story.” Divine election, rather, is the sole ground upon which David’s kingship rises and stands. Subsequent to YHWH’s initial election of David as His king, therefore, the rest of the narrative presents YHWH’s confirmation of him as His choice for king through the emergence of David as the “beloved son” of Jesse, Saul, all Israel, and YHWH Himself.
