總體分析
本文介紹了蘇美爾人對神的崇拜及由此引起的社會(huì)階層的劃分。第一句至第四句為一個(gè)意群，主要介紹了蘇美爾人對神的崇拜，以及神凌駕于人之上。第五句至倒數(shù)第二句為一個(gè)意群，介紹了由于對神的崇拜而出現(xiàn)的社會(huì)上層階層及其職能。末句附帶說明了在宗教體系之外的社會(huì)階層。
全文翻譯
所有的蘇美爾城邦都認(rèn)可很多共同的神，包括天空之神、風(fēng)暴之王、晨星和昏星。雖然蘇美爾人崇拜代表繁衍、愛和戰(zhàn)爭的女神，但她在地位上卻明顯低于男性神。這表明在一個(gè)更趨都市化的社會(huì)中，過去時(shí)代的民族曾經(jīng)致以大地母親神的敬意已經(jīng)減少。神似乎都極其暴力且捉摸不定，人的一生成為任他們擺布和奴役的一生。史詩《創(chuàng)世記》中強(qiáng)調(diào)人類被創(chuàng)造出來是為了使神放棄勞動(dòng)。而且每一座城邦都有它自己的神，該神被認(rèn)為確實(shí)居住在廟宇里，理論上則是城邦里所有財(cái)產(chǎn)的擁有者。因此詮釋神的意志并且控制城市經(jīng)濟(jì)產(chǎn)品的分配的僧侶以他們超自然的以及在物質(zhì)方面享有的功能而受到青睞。公元前3000年以后，當(dāng)城市不斷增多的戰(zhàn)事使軍事領(lǐng)導(dǎo)才能變得非常重要時(shí)，成為國王的軍隊(duì)首領(lǐng)占據(jù)了在神與僧侶階層之間的位置，他是神的代言人，對僧侶階層既利用又安撫。因此在一個(gè)等級社會(huì)中國王和僧侶代表了上層階級。居于他們之下的是書吏，即，廟宇世俗的侍臣，他監(jiān)督城市經(jīng)濟(jì)生活的方方面面，并制定粗略的司法體系。在廟宇官員之外，社會(huì)被劃分為四類人：大地主和軍事領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人這樣一群精英和貴族人群;商人、工匠和技工的混合群體;占人口大部分的自由農(nóng)民;奴隸。
