- W799923092 abstract "Although biblical prophecy achieved outstanding pinnacles of morality, biblical priesthood did not lag far behind. Let us not forget that a number of admonitions. appearing in the Pentateuch and expressing a most refined ethical consciousness, were set down by priestly pens (e.g .• Lev. 19:17-18, and there are other verses like these). Priesthood's distinctive and defining feature, however, is not morality, but divine service, which fundamentally docs not coincide with morality. These are two independent concepts, the connection between which is the outcome, at most, of circumstances in the evolution of human consciousness which periodically result in overlap, by giving religious sanctification to ethics, or imposing moralistic norms on religious and cultic conduct. In just the same manner, prophecy in its essence is not based on moral experience, since its main impulse is not the quest for justice but the mystical-religious feeling of divine mission and the sense of compulsion to speak God's message.' Priesthood (the starting-point of the following discussion) has, in essence, even less to do with morality. It too is based on a mystic-religious feeling, a feeling of proximity to the divine and the absolute obligation to serve God. An objective explanation of priesthood, as well as some other institutions and practices bordering on its orbit, had better take its start with this fundamental quality." @default.
