Własność czy obecność? Teologia Imienia w Dziele Deuteronomistycznym
Presence or an Act of Ownership? The Name Theology in the Deuteronomistic Work

Summary/Abstract: The article explores the issue of the Name Theology as one of the elements that characterize and represent the Deuteronomistic redaction. In light of the arguments that have been appearing for several decades challenging the interpretation of the Name Theology or denying its existence, the author attempts to re-examine the biblical material from which the concept originated, in an attempt to answer the question of whether the Name Theology in the Deuteronomistic Work is present and whether it actually refers to the issue of God’s presence on earth. The „Name formulas” in both Deuteronomy and the Deuteronomistic History are subjected to textual, lexical and grammatical analysis. An important point of the article is the reference to a comparative study of extra-biblical materials, with particular emphasis on Akkadian literature, since it is on these that the hypotheses undermining the so-called Name Theology are commonly based.
