Tłumaczenie artykułu na język angielski / Article translated by Michael Pockley.This article compares the revelation of the divine name to Moses in Exod 3:14 and its counterpart in Augustine’s first vision in his Confessiones. The main aim is to elucidate the continuity and difference in Augustine’s relationship with, and thought regarding, the figure of Moses and the revelation Moses received. Methodologically, it is based on comparing the Hebrew, Greek, and Latin versions of the text, their relationship with the history of thought, and on juxtaposing it with selected relevant passages in Augustine’s work. It proceeds from the change brought about by the Greek text through its reception, with particular reference to Philo of Alexandria. The main part of this article focuses on the Ego sum qui sum as the content of Augustine’s visionary experience and as an object of interpretation in interrelation with the philosophical concept of being; the main finding is that Augustine does not define God, but interprets his self-identification with being as the starting point for Augustine’s own indirect reference to being and to humanity’s relationship with the incomprehensible but repeatedly revelatory God.enCC-BY-ND - Uznanie autorstwa - Bez utworów zależnychAugustine of HippoMosesPhilo of AlexandriaGodbeingtheophanyChurch FathersDoctors of the ChurchtheologyinterpretationBook of ExodusBibleOld TestamentExodus 3:14aExodus 3early Christianityphilosophyexegetical analysismystical experiencebiblical studiespatristicsAugustyn z HipponyMojżeszFilon z AleksandriiBógistotateofaniaojcowie Kościoładoktorzy KościołateologiainterpretacjaKsięga WyjściaBibliaPismo ŚwięteStary TestamentWj 3:14aWj 3wczesne chrześcijaństwofilozofiaanaliza egzegetycznadoświadczenie mistycznebiblistykapatrystykaArticle
