Michael Geiger is professor for Old Testament Studies at the Protestant University Wuppertal. Introduction: Dr. Thomas Wagner Abstract: During these pandemic times, resilience has proved to be vital. The concept, though, bears a certain ambivalence: between home office, helping kids with zoom-schooling, and worrying about elderly parents being resilient has become one more challenge to be met. In view of this, Resilience Studies have gained prominence. Researchers in the field discuss which constituting factors of resilience might be identifiable, whether those can be acquired and relied on in difficult situations, and in how far they can be related to religious aspects. Vis-à-vis such uncertainties, the widespread belief in angels holds out the promise of being taken care of. In this light, not surprisingly, Ps 91.11 has become the most popular among baptismal mottos. Given the fact that Ps 91 is the most frequently attested apotropaic psalm in Antiquity, in both, Hebrew and Greek, it seems probable that the text offers, along with the angels, an overarching concept of resilience. In my lecture, I will set out to identify underlying strategies and images of resilience in Psalm 91. I will show how invoking this psalm provides an awareness of shelter in a vulnerable situation. This even holds true for the human condition of fundamental vulnerability towards plague and pandemic (Ps 91.3;6). While the text employs static images of a safe place like ?refuge? and ?fortress?, the depiction of the angels, being reminiscent of Exodus, provides a dynamic perception of mobile shelter. In that, Psalm 91 turns out to be an apotropaic text fostering resilience across centuries and cultures.

She holds a PhD from the University of Marburg. Her dissertation thesis deals with Conceptions of Space in the Book of Deuteronomy (Kohlhammer 2010). She is currently about to finish a project on Angels in the Old Testament re-conceptualizing the Messenger of God in redactional and tradition-historical perspective.
