AB - The values of objectivity, totality, value-neutralness, and so forth, were highly regarded in the age of modernism, but moving into the age of post-modernism, the importance of ‘life with stories’ and ‘value-oriented life’ has been emphasized. In such an age I intend to study ‘prayers’ rather than public phenomena, before which personal piety stands.
Under the situation when public religion was being dissolved in the exilic period and in the exilic transition period, personal piety such as prayers functioned as an important means to receive God’s revelation. Nevertheless it was difficult for prayers, different from the cult or the Word, to obtain the certainty of revelation. Therefore, they tried to complement the vagueness of the reception of revelation. In the process of this try, theology of prayer is also formed.
This study first traces the history of the change in the reception of revelation in the exilic period and in the period before and after it. During the process the differences between the revelation of the Word and the prophetic revelation are investigated. Besides the try to complement the vagueness of prophetic revelation, that is, theology of prayer is found out.
The theology of prayer, which 1 Samuel 1 shows, is that the way to live by following the lead of God, that is, the sure way to receive God’s revelation has to be connected with personal piety and commitment which are self-emptying, and that then only the certainty of prophetic revelation can be obtained above its vagueness.
