신명기 성소 신학의 전승사적 형성 ― 실로, 벧엘, 예루살렘 전승의 이동과 수렴 ― = The Tradition-Historical Formation of Deuteronomic Sanctuary Theology: The Movement and Convergence of the Shiloh, Bethel, and Jerusalem Traditions

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 신명기 성소 신학의 형성 과정을 전승사적 방법론으로 규명한다. 기존 연구가 신명기 12장의 중앙성소 규정을 요시야 시대의 제의 중앙집중화 산물로 이해한 것과 달리, 본 연구는 실로, 벧엘, 예루살렘으로 이어지는 성소 전승의 역사적 이동과 신학적 수렴이 그 형성 배경임을 논증한다. 그 결과 신명기의 "여호와께서 택하실 곳"이라는 공식은 단일 지명의 고정이 아니라, 다양한 전승의 신학적 통합임을 탐구한다.

This study investigates the tradition-historical formation of Deuteronomic sanctuary theology. Previous scholarship has predominantly understood the centralization legislation of Deuteronomy 12 as a product of Josianic cultic reform. While such an approach has contributed significantly to the historical understanding of Deuteronomy, it does not fully explain how earlier sanctuary traditions were transmitted, transformed, and theologically reinterpreted within the Deuteronomic sanctuary formula.
This study employs tradition-historical criticism as its primary methodological framework. The sequence Shiloh–Bethel–Jerusalem is not intended to represent the canonical order of the final form of the biblical text, but rather an analytical order for tracing the historical movement and theological convergence of sanctuary traditions. Archaeological and literary-critical studies are used only as supplementary evidence.
Three lines of argument are developed. First, Shiloh functioned as an early central sanctuary that combined the ark tradition with priestly authority. Its collapse demonstrated that no sanctuary possessed automatic or permanent legitimacy apart from YHWH’s sovereign choice. Second, Bethel preserved ancient northern sanctuary memories associated with the Jacob traditions. After the fall of the Northern Kingdom, these memories may have entered the southern theological milieu through northern tradition-bearers, but they were not accepted uncritically. Rather, they were reconfigured through prophetic critique and Deuteronomic centralization. Third, Jerusalem emerged as the symbolic site in which earlier sanctuary memories were reinterpreted and gathered into the theology of “all Israel.”
This study argues that the Deuteronomic formula, “the place where YHWH will choose to put his name,” should not be reduced to a mere institutional claim for Jerusalem. Rather, it represents a theological language of divine choice, name, and presence, shaped through the movement and reinterpretation of Israel’s sanctuary traditions.
