| Abstract
|
:
|
The Hebrew Bible is used by many to ponder moral questions about how one ought to or ought not to behave. Kierkegaard made the Abraham story famous with his ethical analysis of Abraham's actions as the "knight of faith," arguing that one who lives the "religious life" is often called upon by God to suspend the ethical for a higher duty to God. This paradox, as Kierkegaard calls it, results in an existential dilemma for Abraham, and others living the "religious life." The actual paradox is not the one Kierkegaard describes, but instead, is the paradox of faith. Adam and Eve, Cain, Noah, and Job suffer the ultimate existential dilemmas because of their faith in God. The dilemma is similar to the one Nietzsche describes in his work about Christianity.
