About the Book

English summary: Since Marcion's second century criticism of the biblical notion of God's anger, interpreters have suggested various interpretations of the wrath of God in the Old Testament. The first part of this study outlines the history of explanations by OT scholars. Since Paul Volz, scholars tend to understand the wrath of God in opposition to God's love, whereas former contributions interpreted it rather as an integral part of covenant theology. Since both positions and their respective typologies of God's anger are somewhat limited, this study's second part examines relevant texts from the Book of Psalms. Three types of divine wrath can be distinguished: (1) response to human guilt, (2) reaction against the behaviour of enemies, which implicates help for the suffering, and (3) God's anger as an interpretament of incomprehensible suffering. In a third part, these results are assessed in the context of the whole OT and Ancient Near Eastern texts. While the larger picture confirms the three types, response to the violation of the sacred can be adduced as a fourth motive. The book ends with a theological proposition: to understand God's wrath as an aspect of His justice. Viewed in this way, anger does not contradict God's love and grace, but His pity. As such, it may be understood as an aspect of hope, insofar that it allows to incomprehensible suffering in relation to God as a just judge - a view which allowed OT authors to interpret suffering and especially the suffering of Israel during the exile. German description: Seit Marcion wurde das Theologoumenon vom Zorn Gottes im Alten Testament kritisiert und in der Exegese verschieden interpretiert. Stefan H. Walchli stellt in einem ersten Teil die verschiedenen Deutungsansatze der alttestamentlichen Exegese seit Paul Volz zusammen. Dabei zeigt sich, dass der Zorn Gottes in der heutigen Exegese meistens als Gegenbegriff zu Liebe und Gnade interpretiert wird, wogegen die altere Exegese meist einen Anschluss an die Bundestheologie suchte. Es stellt sich die Frage, ob diese Deutungen und Typisierungen des Zornes Gottes genugen konnen. Diese Frage vertieft Walchli in einem zweiten Teil am Beispiel der einschlagigen Psalmen. Dabei lassen sich drei Grundtypen des Zornes Gottes erkennen. Diese am Beispiel der Psalmen gewonnene Typologie ordnet der Autor in einem dritten Teil in den Kontext des Alten Orients und des ganzen Alten Testaments ein. Die drei Redeweisen vom Zorn Gottes finden sich hier wieder und lassen sich bestatigen. Ein vierter Typ thematisiert den Zorn Gottes als Reaktion auf die Verletzung des Heiligen. Daraus zieht Walchli im letzten Teil des Buches eine bibeltheologische Konsequenz: Die Rede vom Zorn Gottes ist nicht zuerst im Gegensatz zur Rede von der Liebe Gottes, sondern besser als ein Aspekt der Gerechtigkeit Gottes zu verstehen. Die Rede vom Zorn Gottes erweist sich letztlich als Ausdruck der Hoffnung, insofern der als zornig erfahrene Gott als gerechter Gott angesprochen wird, von dem rettendes Eingreifen erwartet werden kann. Insofern ist sie fur viele alttestamentliche Texte unverzichtbar und in vielen Fallen ein Schlussel zur Deutung der Exilserfahrung Israels.
