Synopsis
Contributing Authors

English summary: Michael Becker examines the early rabbinical traditions of miracles and miracle workers. He gives a detailed analysis of magic, demonism, the terminology of miracles and the narrative tradition. He focuses on the miracle worker traditions in early rabbinical records, above all on Honi the Circle-Drawer and Hanina ben Dosa as well as several other figures. German description: Michael Becker schreibt uber ein Thema des spatantiken Judentums, das gleichermassen relevant ist fur die Hintergrunde des Wirkens Jesu von Nazareth und seiner Darstellung wie des zeitgenossischen Wunder-(tater)verstandnisses insgesamt. Methodische Voruberlegungen und eine Forschungsubersicht fuhren in die komplexe historische wie traditionsgeschichtliche Problematik der fruhrabbinischen Traditionsliteratur ein. Anschliessend behandelt der Autor die Problemkreise ‘Magie’ und ‘Damonismus’ und interpretiert die fruhrabbinische Terminologie sowie die Erzahltraditionen ausfuhrlich. Das Hauptgewicht seiner Untersuchung liegt auf dem Verstandnis von Wundertatern im fruhrabbinischen Judentum. Dazu analysiert er nicht nur die Traditionen zu Honi dem Kreiszieher und Hanina ben Dosa, sondern zieht auch weitere fruhrabbinische Belege zur Erlauterung heran. Unter Beachtung der hermeneutischen Eigenart der judischen Traditionsliteratur uberpruft Michael Becker ausserdem verschiedene rabbinische Verstandnismuster, wie z. B. das Shaliah-Verstandnis und die Hasidim-These, auf ihren Aussagegehalt und ihre Tragfahigkeit hin. Er klart detailliert die rabbinischen Uberarbeitungstendenzen und kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass trotz der vielfach kritischen Urteile der Rabbinen an der Existenz charismatischer Stromungen und Einzelgestalten innerhalb und ausserhalb der rabbinischen Kreise kein Zweifel besteht. Michael Becker schliesst die Untersuchung durch einen Ausblick auf die Jesustradition ab. Er pruft kritisch einige theologische Entwurfe, welche sich jungst auf Teile des rabbinischen Vergleichsmaterials berufen haben.
