국문 초록

‘神’, which appears in Psalm 139:7 of the Korean Bible means ‘Spirit’ and differs in the use of the term from the Chinese and Japanese Bibles. In modern Korean, ‘神’ is considered to be a unique Christian term in that it generally means ‘God’. Focusing on this fact, this paper examines the meaning and usage of the word ‘神’ in bilingual dictionaries and Japanese dictionaries dating back to the 1800s when the Korean and Japanese Bibles were translated. I discussed the reason why ‘神’ was adopted from three viewpoints. Research on ‘神’ has been discussed from many perspectives, such as philosophy, religious studies, anthropology, and sociology, in addition to linguistics. However, no research has been carried out that presents linguistic evidence for the unique characteristics of the Christian term which means only the ‘Holy Father’ instead of ‘God’meaning both the ‘Holy Spirit’ and the ‘Holy Father’, as claimed in the present work. This is based on a dictionary study, and it is considered impossible to clarify the meaning and usage of ‘神’ over thousands of years even if extensive research is conducted. However, it is hoped that this will be a basic study for identifying the unique character of ‘神’ used in the Bible (Psalms).

영문 초록

韓国語の聖書の詩編139編7節に見える「神」は、「聖靈(Spirit)」の意味で、中国語や日本語の聖書との用語の使用において違う。現代韓国語で「神」は一般的に「聖父(God)」を意味するという点で独特のキリスト教用語としての用法と考えられる。 本稿では、このようなことに注目し韓国語と日本語の聖書が翻訳された1800年代の対訳辞典と国語辞典とを対象に「神」の意味·用法について調べた上、韓国語聖書で「神」が採択された理由について3つの観点から論じた。 「神」に関する研究は、語学の他にも哲学、宗教、民俗、社会など数多くの観点から議論されてきた。しかし、本稿で主張しようとする<聖靈>と<聖父>の両方を意味する「神」から「聖父」だけを意味するキリスト教用語としての独特の性格について語学的根拠を提示する研究はなかったと思われる。本稿は辞書を中心に調査したもので幅広い資料を検討したわけではないという研究方法上の限界がある。数千年にわたる「神」に関する意味·用法を明確にするということは膨大な調査がなされても難しいかもしれないが、聖書(詩編)に使用された「神」の性格究明に関する一つの基礎的研究になることを期待したい。
