摘要

The story of the golden calf in Exodus 32 bewilders and bewitches. With fast paced episodes, inverted characterizations, mayhem, laughter, and improbable violence, this topsy-turvy tale of a community's response to trauma suddenly interrupts a long stretch of priestly text detailing instructions for building a tabernacle and ordaining a priesthood. Traditional readings of the story foreground the people's sin of idolatry which occasions the wrath and forgiveness of their deity YHWH. However, the laughter in the story-world and the narrative's inverted characterizations suggest the potential for alternative readings. Applying Henri Bergson's theory of laughter and Mikhail Bakhtin's literary concepts of polyphony and carnival to Exodus 32 reveals that the story bears the marks of comedy and a literary carnival. Bergson's premise for comedy, "something mechanical encrusted on the living," illuminates how a formal priestly structure that denies the vitality of the body sets up a comic situation. As the story of the calf interrupts a serious priestly landscape that is anxious about the body, the tension inherent in its system of regulations resolves into a comic story about people, priests, a mediator, and a deity whose bodies have been set free and are now caught up in the joyful relativity of all things that is carnival. Through applying Bakhtin's literary notion of polyphony to the literary landscape of Exodus 20-40, we see that the intrusion of carnival into the priestly world of laws upends its serious and hierarchical nature and creates polyphony. In this polyphonic space, two unmerged voices, one priestly the other story, move in counterpoint to each other as together they explore the idea of the special YHWH-human relationship. In reading Exodus 20-40 polyphonically, we experience a literary carnival that continues to turn an isolated priestly world inside out thereby opening up new vistas for exploring the nature of the human-divine relationship. Carnivalizing Sinai provides insights into the relationship between comedy, carnival, and trauma and how the Bible reflects on approaches to the human-divine relationship that attempt to control the vibrancy and unpredictability of human experience. For every law, there is a calf.
