English summary: The third collection of Reinhard G. Kratz’s Selected Essays is devoted to “myth” in the Hebrew Bible and contains material dealing with the tense relationship between biblical tradition and historical reality. While the first part (Myth and History in Biblical Scholarship) takes a research-history approach and introduces renowned scholars who have subjected the difference between tradition and history to a critical analysis, the two following parts offer examples from two areas of the Hebrew Bible. The second section is devoted to the Myth of God’s Kingship and its transformation within the Psalms and the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Myth of God’s People forms the third part. Here the essays concentrate on the background to the grasp of history and stories in the North-West Semitic inscriptions which illuminate the emergence of sacred history in the Hebrew Bible. German description: Der dritte Band der Kleinen Schriften von Reinhard G. Kratz ist dem Thema des Mythos in der Hebraischen Bibel gewidmet und enthalt Aufsatze, die um das spannungsvolle Verhaltnis zwischen biblischer Uberlieferung und historischer Realitat kreisen. Wahrend der erste ( Mythos und Geschichte in der Bibelwissenschaft ) forschungsgeschichtlich orientiert ist und namhafte Gelehrte vorstellt, die den Unterschied zwischen Uberlieferung und Geschichte einer kritischen Analyse unterzogen haben, bieten die beiden folgenden Teile Fallbeispiele aus zwei Bereichen der Hebraischen Bibel: Der zweite Teil ist dem Mythos vom Konigtum Gottes und seiner Transformation im Rahmen der Psalmen und der Schriften vom Toten Meer gewidmet. Im dritten Teil sind Beitrage zum Mythos vom Volk Gottes versammelt, die auf dem Hintergrund des Verstandnisses von Geschichte und Geschichten in nordwestsemitischen Inschriften die Konstruktion der heiligen Geschichte in der Hebraischen Bibel beleuchten.
