Os chifres de Moisés: um estudo sobre Êxodo 34.29-30
Abstract
O presente artigo visa analisar o texto de Êxodo 34.29-30 a partir de uma das traduções possíveis, compreendendo a palavra hebraica קָרַ֛ן como “chifres”. Estes chifres encontram pelo menos três interpretações possíveis: 1) os chifres seriam a arma de Moisés contra os anjos, que se opuseram à sua subida ao céu para receber a Torá; 2) os chifres seriam uma característica de uma máscara ritual, a qual Moisés teria utilizado; 3) os chifres seriam uma alusão ao bezerro de ouro, indicando que seria o próprio Moisés, e não o bezerro, o representante de Deus para o povo.References
