    „Palec to Boży” (Wj 8,15ab). Dlaczego palec a nie ręka?
    Szamocki, Grzegorz (Kuria Metropolitalna Gdańska, 2003)
    This paper presents an interpretation of the statement of the Egyptian magicians, often neglected in standard commentaries: «This is the finger of God» (Ex 8,15). This comes after the third plague (gnats), and after the magicians' failed attempt to copy it. The expression «finger of God» describes the situation which has come about. «Finger» is used rather than «hand», the latter term denoting general instrumentality, as opposed to detailed and direct activity, especially in reference to God. The term „finger” in the mouth of the magicians indicates that a concrete situation is in view, a situation caused through the direct activity of a god, and that the situation has an instructive function. The instruction is addressed to Pharaoh. He has to understand that Moses is sent by the God YHWH who is present in Egypt, and that there is no one like Him.

    „W Betanii, po drugiej stronie Jordanu” (J 1,28): Miejsce działalności Jana Chrzciciela
    Szamocki, Grzegorz (Kuria Metropolitalna Gdańska, 2003)
    The present article looks at the problem of the geographical information concerning the activity of John the Baptist, and its interpretation. The expression „in Bethany beyond the Jordan” (Joh 1,28) does not cause a problem if we take the name Bethany as „House of the boat” (as from bêt ŏnijjāh and not bêt ănijjāh). John the Baptist was active in that place „beyond the Jordan” where once Moses addressed to all Israel his last speech (Deut 1,1-5). The situation of the people who came to John corresponds to that of the Israelites before their passing through the Jordan to the Promised Land. After the death of Moses, Joshua guided the Israelites across the river. John baptised Jesus, and Jesus leads the people to the new Promised Land.
