Nebukadnezar II: Perbedaan antara revisi

 

=== Kegilaan ===

Dalam masa pemerintahannya, Nebukadnezar sempat mengalami kegilaan dan hidup seperti hewan selama 7 tahun, seperti dicatat dalam {{Dan|4|28-37}}. Tidak ada catatan di luar Alkitab yang mengkonfirmasi hal ini, dan penentuan tanggalnya sulit diperkirakan.<!--

During his reign, Nebuchadnezzar loses his sanity and lives in the wild like an animal for seven years. After this, his sanity and position are restored. Theologians have interpreted this story in several ways. [[Origen]] attributed the metamorphosis as a representation of the [[Fallen angel#Fall of Satan|fall of Lucifer]], [[Jean Bodin|Bodin]] and [[Philipp Clüver|Cluvier]] maintained it was a metamorphosis of both soul and body, [[Tertullian]] confined the transformation to the body only, without the loss of reason, cases of which [[Augustine of Hippo|Augustine]] stated were reported in Italy, but gave them little credit. Gaspard Peucer asserted that the transformation of men into wolves was common in [[Livonia]]. Some Jewish rabbis asserted there was an exchange of souls between the man and ox, while others argued for an apparent or [[wiktionary:docetism|docetic]] change which was not real. The most generally received opinion, which was also held by [[Jerome]], was that the madman was under the influence of [[Hypochondriasis|hypochondriachal]] [[monomania]] by which God could humble the pride of kings.<ref>Samuel Fallows, [http://books.google.com/books?id=JbJUAAAAYAAJ& ''The Popular and Critical Bible Encyclopaedia and Scriptural Dictionary''] The Howard-Severance Company (1920) Vol.2 p.302</ref>
