Annotation: The importance of the divine example in Judaism stems from its direct reflection - according to the Scripture - of the acts and qualities it portrays, from its official teaching in the Targum, and from the many texts that elaborate on it. The teachings transported in the Targum were chosen - at their time of insertion - for their orthodoxy, and because they were fundamental and predisposed to widespread distribution. The questions addressed in this study are: When was the notion of divine imitation first introduced into the Targum? When and in what historical and exegetical context were the Targum and the elements that constitute it drawn up? What are the changes and elaborations to the Targum? The research carried out here uses contemporary and older sources that, together with the Targum, form the corpus of rabbinic literature, French text.

Publisher Description:
L'importance de la notion d'exemple divin dans le judaisme ressort de l'importance des actes et qualites auxquels, des l'Ecriture, elle sert de motif, de son enseignement officiel et populaire dans les Targums, voir de son echo liturgique, et de la multitude des textes qui la developpent. Le Targum, traduction officielle de l'Ecriture, beneficie, grace a l'usage liturgique commun, de certaines prerogatives de celle-la: sacralisation donc fixation relatives. Les enseignements vehicules par le Targum sont ceux qui a l'epoque de leur insertion, ont ete consciemment choisis non seulement comme orthodoxes, mais comme fondamentaux et susceptibles d'une large divulgation. Quel est le moment de l'insertion de la notion d'imitation de Dieu dans le Targum, a quels moments et dans quels contextes historiques et exegetiques le bloc targumique et, auparavant, les elements qui le constituent, se sont elabores, quelles sont, dans ces contextes, les mutations de ce bloc, de ces elements qui l'ont constitue, telles sont les questions qui ont motive cette recherche dans les textes contemporains ou anterieures qui constituent, avec le Targum, la litterature rabbinique.
