斐洛论自由意志和罪

自由意志和罪的关联是西方思想史所要处理的一个核心问题。关于这个主题学者们多只追溯到奥古斯丁的著名论述,然而这无法真正地揭示其演变脉络。该文分析了希腊化犹太教思想家斐洛对自由意志和罪的阐释,着重论述了自由意志作为神圣性的存在原理何以成为罪的自明性自欺的根源,进而指出了希伯来和希腊传统在这个理论上的各自贡献。

The relationship between free will and sin is one of core questions in history of western thought. On this topic, scholars usually only cast back Augustine＇s argument, but it couldn＇t really open out the evolutional skeleton. This paper analyzes Philo＇s argument on free will and sin, elaborates why Divine Being could become the source of axiomatic self-deception, and indicates contributions from Hebrew and Hellenism on this topic.
