Abstract

The relationship between “gate” and “road” in Matthew 7:13-14 has always been a crux interpretum. There are basically three options in viewing the relationship. In the case of the first two the point of departure is that the metaphors differ in meaning; each metaphor therefore makes a unique contribution to the text. The two options are: the gate is at the beginning of the road, and the gate is at the end of the road. The third option regards the metaphors as synonyms, thus both conveying the same meaning. This option renders the relationship as of secondary importance.

  • Vir die goeie verstaan van die metafore “poort” en “pad” in Matteus 7:13-14 is dit nodig om kortliks op hulle voorkoms en aanwending in die destydse Umwelt te let

Summary

INLEIDING

Een van die kernprobleme in die verstaan van Matteus 7:13-14 is die verhouding tussen die metafore “poort” en “pad”. Die artikel wil die kollig laat val op hierdie verhouding. Die aanpak is die volgende: Eers word die wording van die teks ondersoek, waarop die agtergrond van die metafore in die destydse Umwelt bepaal word. Daarna volg ’n oorsig van hoe die metafore moontlik met mekaar verband hou
