Entdeckungen im Kolosserbrief Teil 1: Kol. 1, 1-8

Am Anfang dieses Semesters haben meine Taiwanesischen Studenten jeweils zwei Texte aus dem Kolosserbrief zugeteilt bekommen, über welche sie im Laufe der nächsten vier Wochen predigen werden. Der Schock dieser jungen Männer und Frauen, dass sie sich im Seminar „Predigen zur Herrlichkeit Gottes“ keinen (Lieblings-) Text aussuchen konnten, sondern sie sich strikt an einen ihnen zumeist völlig fremden Text halten müssen, saß tief. Ratlose Gesichter schauten verzweifelt in die Seiten der Chinesischen Bibel auf der Suche nach Indizien für sinnvolle Predigtaussagen. Inzwischen ist die Panik der Begeisterung gewichen und voll gekritzelte Seiten werden mittlerweile gedreht, gewendet, gekürzt und reorganisiert.

Einer der wichtigsten Dinge, welche zur Phase der beflügelten Inspiration der Studenten geführt hat, war das gemeinsame Studieren des Biblischen Textes des Kolosserbriefes auf der Suche nach der ursprünglichen Intention des Autors. Den entscheidenen Einfluss auf beim Finden von Sinn und Bedeutung des Briefes von Paulus war dabei das Chinesische Wort wisoomaa – deutsch: warum?! Die Frage beim Studium des Bibeltextes ist nämlich nicht nur was schreibt Paulus, sondern warum schreibt er es? Warum betet Paulus zwei lange Gebete (Kol. 1, 9-12; 2, 1-2) und warum erzählt er, was Epaphras betet (Kol. 4, 12)? Warum schreibt er den Kolossern, dass Hoffnung im Himmel aufbewahrt ist (Kol. 1, 5) und warum nennt er sich am Anfang des Schreibens „Apostel“? Warum, warum, warum hat dazu geführt, dass wir – die Studenten und ich – gemeinsam einige Entdeckungen im Kolosserbrief gemacht haben, welche geholfen haben, den Brief als ganzes zu verstehen und die Relevanz für unseren eigenen Weg mit Gott zu entdecken.

Mit den folgenden Beiträgen „Entdeckungen im Kolosserbrief“ möchte ich den deutschen Lesern einige Impulse für das Selbststudium des Kolosserbriefs weiter geben. Ich bete für euch, dass beim Suchen nach mehr Wissen darüber, wer Gott ist; was er in eurem Leben getan hat und welches großartige Ziel er mit eurem Leben verfolgt, Er selbst euch mit Erkenntnis geistige Weisheit und Verständnisses füllt (Kol. 1, 9). Viel Freude auf eurer eigenen Entdeckungsreise im Brief des Paulus an die Kolosser.

Das große ganze – und der Hintergrund des Briefes

Jeder Brief von Paulus ist eine Aneinanderreihung von Argumenten, die alle miteinander logisch so kohärent verbunden sind, dass sie zusammen zu einer großen Argumentationsabsicht beitragen. Um die große Argumentation des Briefes als ganzes nachzuvollziehen, muss man die einzelnen Teile (also die einzelnen Verse und ihre Bestandteile) verstehen. Der Sinn der einzelnen Teile des Briefes wird jedoch erst klar, wenn man die Gesamtargumentation erkennt und erklären kann, wie die einzelnen Teile zur Gesamtargumentation beitragen. Wie man leicht merkt, das Problem bei der Interpretation eines Briefes ist, wo man anfängt, sich einzuarbeiten, um sowohl die einzelnen Verse als dann auch den Brief als ganzes zu verstehen.

Vielleicht ist es am sinnvollsten für den anfänglichen Leser erst einmal den gesamten Brief von vorn bis hinten an einem Stück durchzulesen und trotz (wahrscheinlich) vieler nicht verstandenen Abschnitte fest zu halten, was man über den Sinn und Hintergrund des Briefes verstanden hat. Beim Kolosserbrief mit seinen nur vier Kapiteln ist das in ca. 20 Minuten recht rasch erledigt.

Folgende leicht nachvollziehbare Sachverhalte fallen dabei auf:

a) Die Kolosser sind aufrichtige Christen, die an Jesus glauben und ihm nachfolgen. („da wir von eurem Glauben an Christus Jesus gehört haben und von der Liebe, die ihr zu allen Heiligen habt…“ Kol. 1, 4)

b) Paulus korrigiert im Kolosserbrief nicht die Glaubensinhalte oder den praktischen Lebenswandel der Adressaten – wie zum Beispiel in den Korintherbriefen. Der überwiegende Ton ist nicht „ihr müsst etwas ändern“ (wie in den Korintherbriefen), sondern „bleibt an dem dran, was ihr ursprünglich gelehrt bekommen habt“ (Wie ihr nun den Christus Jesus, den Herrn, empfangen habt, so wandelt in ihm, fest verwurzelt und gegründet in ihm und befestigt im Glauben, genau so wie ihr [bereits] gelehrt worden seid…“ Kol. 2, 6-7).

c) Die Herausforderungen der Gemeinde haben ihre Ursache in falscher Lehre, welche von Leuten außerhalb der Gemeinde an die Christen heran getragen wird. Es sind also keine Christen in der Gemeinde, welche Irrlehre verbreiten, sondern Menschen, die überhaupt nicht zur Gemeinde gehören, welche die Christen verunsichern. („Passt auf, dass niemand euch einfange durch die Philosophie und leeren Betrug nach der Überlieferung der Menschen…“ Kol. 2, 8). Wie wir später sehen werden, sind diese Irrlehrer Juden, welche behaupten, dass nur das Halten der Mosaischen Gesetze zu einem Teilhabe an Gottes zukünftigem himmlischen Erbe befähigt („So verurteile euch nun niemand wegen Speise oder Trank oder betreffs eines Festes oder Neumondes oder Sabbats…“ Kol. 2, 16).

d) Die falsche Lehre, welcher denen die Kolosser ausgesetzt waren, hat zu einer Zuversichtskrise der Christen geführt. Das heißt, die Kolosser sind sich nicht mehr sicher, ob ihr bisheriger Glaube ausreichend ist, um eines Tages „den Himmel zu erben“ oder ob sie nicht doch Teile der (falschen Lehre) annehmen und umsetzten sollten, um vollständige Annahme von Gott zu erhalten („Denn ich will, dass ihr wisst, welch großen [Gebets-]Kampf ich für euch habe und für die in Laodizea und alle, die mein leibliches Angesicht nicht gesehen haben, damit ihre Herzen ermutigt werden… zu allem Reichtum an Gewissheit des Verständnisses… Dies sage ich aber, damit niemand euch verführe durch überredende Worte.“ Kol. 2, 1-2).

e) Die Lösung der Unsicherheit liegt in der Aufforderung an die Kolosser, sich „nicht verrückt machen zu lassen“, sondern sich daran zu besinnen, wer Jesus Christus ist und was er für sie getan hat. Wenn die Christen sich an die Großartigkeit von Christus und an sein einmaliges Werk am Kreuz erinnern, wird klar, dass der herausragende Christus ausreicht für das „zukünftige erben des Himmels“ und dass die Lehre, die von außen kommt, mit der erhabenen Vorrangstellung von Christus nicht vereinbar ist (Kol. 1, 15-22; 2, 9-15).

f) Dem linguistischen Fachmann fällt auf, dass die tragende Bildersprache des Kolosserbriefes die Sprache des Erbrechts ist. Paulus verwendet in seinen verschiedenen Briefen unterschiedliche Bildersprache, um seine Theologie zu verdeutlichen (Römerbrief = Gerichtssprache; Korintherbrief = Sklavensprache; Epheserbrief = Bausprache; Philipperbrief = Militärsprache, etc.). Im Kolosserbrief ist die Sprache des Erbrechts die dominierende linguistische Metapher (Kol. 1, 12, 13, 28; 2, 8, 14; 3, 11), welche Paulus benutzt, um die Kolosser zu ermutigen, dass Christus sie bereits voll erbberechtigt hat.

Mit diesen ersten Hintergrundinformationen können wir uns den ersten Zeilen im Kolosserbrief widmen, und zwar dem Grußwort in Kol. 1, 1-2 und dem Dankgebet in Kol. 1, 3-8.

Paulus, Apostel von Christus Jesus durch den Willen Gottes und Timotheus, der Bruder, an die, welche in Kolossä [wohnen], an die heiligen und treuen Brüder in Christus: Gnade euch und Friede von Gott, unserem Vater!

Wir danken fortwährend Gott, dem Vater unseres Herrn Jesus Christus, wenn wir für euch beten, 4 da wir gehört haben von eurem Glauben an Christus Jesus und von der Liebe, die ihr zu allen Heiligen habt, 5 wegen der Hoffnung, die für euch in den Himmeln aufbewahrt ist, von welcher ihr habt ihr zuvor gehört im Wort der Wahrheit – nämlich des Evangeliums, 6 das zu euch gekommen ist, wie es auch in der ganzen Welt ist und Frucht bringt und wächst, wie auch unter euch von dem Tag an, da ihr [folgendes] gehört und erkannt habt: die Gnade Gottes [und ihr habt es gehört und erkannt] in der Wahrheit. 7 Genau wie ihr es auch gelernt habt von Epaphras, unserem geliebten Mit-Sklaven, der ein treuer Botschaftsüberbringer des Christus für euch ist, 8 der uns auch eure Liebe im Geist verkündet hat.

Kol. 1, 1-8 (meine Übersetzung)

 

Das Präskript (Grußwort)

Die Anfänge von Griechisch-Römischen Briefen im Altertum beginnen meist mit dem Nennen des Absenders, des Empfängers und eines kurzen Grußes (siehe zum Beispiel die Form eines typischen Griechisch-Römischen Briefes in Apg. 15:23). Paulus übernimmt dieses gebräuchliche Muster „A an B, Grüße“ und erweitert es mit qualifizierenden Worten oder Satzteilen. Dabei wählt er wie er sich selbst und seine Empfänger beschreibt, als auch das Grußwort sorgfältig aus, um gleich von Anfang an die wichtigsten Themen des folgenden Briefes anzudeuten und bereits im Grußwort theologische Aussagen zu treffen.

Paulus, Apostel von Christus Jesus durch den Willen Gottes…

Paulus bezeichnet sich nicht in jedem seiner dreizehn Briefe im Präskript als Apostel. Im Philipperbrief bezeichnet er sich einfach als „Sklave Christi“ und im der Korrespondenz an die Thessalonicher nennt er nichts weiter als seinen Namen Paulus. Wenn Paulus den Titel „Apostel“ anführt, tut er dies in den verschiednen Briefen mit unterschiedlichen Zielen. Das Wort beinhaltet als Bezeichnung seiner autoritativen Funktion als Repräsentant des auferstandenen Christus. Ein Apostel (im Sinne eines Gesandten) spricht und handelt in seiner Funktion als Botschaftsübermittler wie der Sender selbst. Mit dem Titel nimmt Paulus für sich in Anspruch dass er mit derselben Autorität dieselbe Botschaft vermittelt als wenn Jesus Christus persönlich anwesend wäre. Das Ziel der „Selbst-titulation“ ist dabei nicht egoistisch: Paulus zieht keine persönlichen Vorteile aus dem Titel und benutzt ihn weder um Anerkennung, Ehre oder sonstige Bevorzugungen in Anspruch zu nehmen (1 Kor. 4, 9). Dass Paulus gleich am Anfang klar macht, dass er mit apostolischer Autorität spricht, soll durchaus implizieren (wie zum Beispiel im 1 Korintherbrief), dass der folgende Inhalt des Briefes nicht diskutable Privatmeinung ist, sondern eine Verpflichtung des bedingungslosen Gehorsams beinhaltet, da in diesem Fall Paulus spricht, als wenn der Herr (der unseren vorbehaltlosen Gehorsam verdient) selbst sprechen würde.

Hier im Kolosserbrief verwendet Paulus aber seinen Titel weder als Mittel, um Unterordnung zu ethischen oder theologischen Aussagen zu erwirken, noch um sich in einem Streit seine Berufung gegen bitteren Widerstand seiner apostolischen Autorität zu verteidigen. Die Verwendung hier hat für die Kolosser einen positiven Tenor. Sie hören eine apostolische Stimme – und das ist Privileg! Es ist eine Bestätigung, dass in ihrer Unsicherheit, was denn das wahre und vollständige Evangelium ist, sie eine verlässliche und autoritative Stimme hören können. Wenn jemand Christus und damit Gottes Sicht der Dinge repräsentiert, dann ein Apostel – und seine Stimme und damit die des auferstandenen Herrn ist in dem folgenden Brief zu hören.

Der Ausdruck „durch den Willen Gottes“ als Nachsatz der Beschreibung für „Apostel“ erinnert an die übernatürliche Berufungsgeschichte des Paulus in Apostelgeschichte 9 und verstärkt die Zusicherung an die Kolosser, dass sie mit Paulus die verlässliche Stimme Gottes hören. Die Bekehrung vom Christenverfolger und Mörder zum enthusiastischen Prediger und Apostel des Glaubens, der dadurch unwahrscheinlich viel Leid ertragen musste, konnte nur durch eine Begegnung mit dem auferstandenen und erhöhten Christus begründet sein und beinhaltete eine fehlerlose Offenbarung der wahren Botschaft Gottes (Gal. 1, 1-2, 11-24). Gottes Wille den Apostel zu berufen beinhaltet eine Versicherung, die verlässliche Botschaft von Christus durch ihn zu hören. Vielleicht kann man sich den Effekt der Wortwahl des Paulus so vorstellen, dass die ersten Kolosser erleichtert sagen „ah, danke Paulus an die Erinnerung. Du bist ein Apostel. Du musst es wissen. Christus hat dich beauftragt. Deine Stimme zählt. Deine Botschaft ist das wahre Evangelium“.

Dass Paulus Christus vor Jesus in der Bezeichnung „Apostel von Christus Jesus“ setzt, legt die Betonung auf „Christus“ – gemeint ist dabei nicht der Nachnahme von Jesus (es ist kein Nachname), sondern der Inhalt des Titels. Die ersten Christen drückten damit aus, dass die großartigen (messianischen) Verheißungen über den kommenden Davidischen König in Jesus von Nazareth erfüllt worden sind (siehe z.B. Apg. 2, 34-36; 2 Kor. 1, 19-20). Paulus bringt mit diesem Titel im Präskript schon ein wenig der Betonung seiner Theologie nach vorn in den Brief. Anstelle zu schreiben, ich bin ein Apostel von Jesus – erinnert Paulus die Kolosser daran, dass Christus bedeutet, dass Gott Verheißungen in Ihm – dem Messias – erfüllt und nur in ihm. An den prominenten Stellen im Text wird Paulus den Titel „Christus“ vor „Jesus“ oder „Jesus Christus“ vorziehen, jedes Mal mit der im Titel innewohnenden Idee der erfüllten Verheißung im Messias. (siehe z.B. Kol. 2, 5 „ich freue mich… die Festigkeit eures Glaubens an Christus zu sehen“; Kol. 2, 8 „Passt auf, dass euch niemand versklavt nach… leeren Betrug nach der Überlieferung der Menschen, nach den Elementen der Welt und nicht Christus gemäß; Kol. 2, 17 „[diese Alttestamentlichen Speiseregeln und Feste] sind ein Schatten der künftigen Dinge, die Substanz [selbst] aber ist des Christus“.

an die heiligen und treuen Brüder in Christus…

Mit diesen Worten beginnt Paulus eine ganze Reihe von Bestätigungen der Kolosser. In ihrem Zweifel, ob sie denn auch die echte Botschaft glauben und vielleicht nicht doch, den jüdischen Stimmen nachgeben sollen, das Mosaische Gesetz zu halten, erinnert Paulus die Kolosser, dass sie „Heilige“ sind. Heiligkeit hat erst in zweiter Linie etwas mit moralischer Aufrichtigkeit (und überhaupt nichts mit dem Römisch-Katholischen System der Heiligsprechung zu tun). In erster Linie bedeutet heilig zu sein, von Gott zu Ihm und Seinen Zwecken abgesondert zu sein. Das Wort „heilig“ oder „Heilige“ wurde im Alten Testament für die Menschen im Bundesvolk Israels benutzt (2 Mose 19, 6). Mit der Bezeichnung von Heiden, die zum Glauben an Christus gekommen sind als „Heilige“ bezieht Gott Heidenchristen in die alttestamentliche Verheißung ein – es sind jetzt die Nachfolger des Christus, welche das heilige Volk Gottes darstellen. Der Ausdruck an dieser Stelle des Briefes ermutigt die Kolosser, dass sie durch ihren Glauben an Christus bereits „drin“ sind – im heiligen Gottesvolk – und jüdische Gesetze nicht mehr der konstutierende Faktor dafür sind, wer als abgesondert zu Gott gehört und wer nicht.

Paulus identifiziert auch Empfänger seiner anderen Briefe als „Heilige“, die Beschreibung der Adressaten als „treu“ ist jedoch ungewöhnlich. Der Ausdruck ist ein echtes Kompliment für ihre theologische Standfestigkeit inmitten von Widerstand. Paulus verteilt mit dem Lob keineswegs sarkastische Andeutungen und Warnungen im Sinne dass er eigentlich sagen will, dass sie untreu waren und sich der Philosophie der Irrlehrer hin gegeben haben (Kol. 2, 8). Paulus verfolgt im Kolosserbrief keinen ironischen Schreibstil (wie im ersten Korintherbrief). Wenn er die Kolosser ernsthaft warnen hätte wollen, hätte er es direkt sagen können (wie im Fall der Galater). Epaphras, Tychicus und Onesimus sind alle (wie die Kolosser) ernsthaft treu (Kol. 1, 7; 4, 7, 9) und auch hier haben wir ein von vielen Bestätigungen in Kol. 1, 1-8, welche die Kolosser realisieren lassen sollen, dass der Apostel von Christus sie bereits als treu und heilig ansieht. Es ist eine Bestätigung ihres gegenwärtigen Glaubenslebens.

Weiterhin bezeichnet Paulus die Kolosser als „Brüder“. Dieser Ausdruck wird in vielfältiger Weise in der Griechisch-Römischen Antike benutzt. Abgesehen davon, dass es zum Beispiel auf den Lippen von Generälen die Beschreibung seiner liebgewordenen Soldaten- “Familie“ ist (siehe in diesem Sinn in Phil. 2, 25) und in Griechisch-Römisch heidnischen religiösen Vereinigungen für „Glaubensbrüder“ benutzt wurde, scheint Paulus hier die Verwendung unter Juden, die einander als „Brüder“ ansprachen (Apg. 2, 29, 37; 3, 17; 7, 2, 26; 13, 15) als Hintergrund für seine Applikation des Begriffs zu verwenden. Die Kolosser sind echte „Brüder“ geworden und deshalb als echter Teil des Haushaltes Gottes implizit gleichberechtigte Erben der Glaubensgemeinschaft (siehe Eph. 2, 12-13).

Mit dem Gruß „Gnade euch und Frieden…“ verändert Paulus das in alltäglichen Briefen verwendete „Gruß“ (gr. chairein) in „Gnade“ (gr. charis). Es ist eindeutig eine Aussage, dass die primäre – alles charakterisierende Eigenschaft Gottes – mit welcher er den Kolossern begegnet „Gnade“ ist. Die Gnade Gottes ist die alles-definierende Existenz der Christen in Kolossä und mit dem typisch Hebräischen Gruß „Frieden“ (hebr. shalom) verdeutlicht Paulus dass die traditionelle Hoffnung des Hebräischen Gottesvolkes auf eine Ära des Friedens (wo Gottes Volk von seinen Feinden befreit wird und geistiges und materielles Wohlergehen genießt) in Christus angebrochen ist.

Die Aufeinanderhäufung von Bestätigung nach Bestätigung setzt Paulus in seinem Dankgebet in Kol. 1, 3-8 fort. Aber dazu mehr in der Fortsetzung…

    Des électeurs attendent l’ouverture d’un bureau de vote à Windhoek, le 29 novembre 2024 en Namibie

    Namibians returned to vote on Friday in 36 polling stations reopened
    two days after a chaotic election, set to test the ruling party’s 34-year
    grip on power, was marred by technical problems.

    Tensions are mounting in the historically stable and peaceful southern African nation where Wednesday’s election was marked by long delays and labelled a „sham“ by the opposition.

    Some people waited 12 hours in line to vote in presidential and legislative polls,
    billed as the toughest yet for the South West Africa People’s Organisation (SWAPO)
    party, in power since Namibia’s 1990 independence from South africa.

    Wednesday’s queues were caused by many technical problems,
    including issues with tablets used to register voters and shortages of ballot
    papers.

    In some cases, torches used to show up invisible ink had run out of batteries and mobile voting teams had left areas with voters still in the
    queues, it said.

    Facing criticism from both voters and parties, the electoral commission extended the vote for a second
    time, giving Namibians until Saturday evening to vote.

    In the capital Windhoek, at the only polling station picked to
    reopen, about 60 people showed up on Friday, including Kluivert Muuondjo who arrived at 4:
    30 am.

    The 21-year-old student said he had waited in line until 11:
    00 pm on Wednesday but left before being able to vote as he had exams the next
    day.

    Des électeurs attendent l’ouverture d’un bureau de vote à Windhoek, le 29 novembre 2024 en Namibie

    „Everyone will have the chance to vote,“ he said. But because Namibians
    can vote at any given polling station, he was worried
    „everyone will flock to one place again.“

    The disarray led to angry complaints from opposition parties with some calling for
    a halt in the electoral process.

    Opposition parties were scheduled to meet on Friday and issue a joint statement, according to Christine Aochamus who represents the Independent Patriots for Change (IPC) party.

    Youth unemployment, enduring inequalities and
    the emergence of a generation born after independence
    are challenging support towards SWAPO which has ruled since 1990.

    Its candidate, vice-president Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, who could become the first woman to lead the country if elected, could face an unprecedented second
    round in the mineral rich country.

    „To open only one place in Khomas (the region of which the capital is part of) is absurd,“ said voter Ensley Engermund,
    who also said he couldn’t vote on Wednesday because of long queues
    despite trying four different polling stations.

    „Only 1.5 millions voters are registered and we get this chaos?“ asked the 49-year-old
    security agent.

    „It was to get people frustrated.“

    Comparable sales down 1.1% in Q3; better than estimates

    *

    Big-ticket DIY spending weakness partly offset
    by storm demand

    *

    2024 sales forecast to drop less than previously expected

    *

    Shares down about 4% in early trading

    (Updates shares in paragraph 6, adds comments from call in paragraph 4, analyst comment in paragraph 8)

    By Savyata Mishra

    Nov 19 (Reuters) – Lowe’s Cos forecast a slower-than-expected drop
    in annual comparable sales on Tuesday, banking on a boost to its current-quarter sales from hurricane-related demand, although big-ticket spending remained strained.

    The home improvement retailer also beat third-quarter comparable sales and profit estimates,
    similar to bigger rival Home Depot’s results last week.

    Hurricanes Helene and Milton devastated parts of the United States, including Florida and North Carolina, causing
    extensive damage to homes, bridges, power infrastructure and
    crops.

    These weather events drove customers to buy more water cans, generators, chainsaws
    and cleaning supplies, Lowe’s executives said in a post-earnings call.

    Results this quarter were modestly better than expected, even excluding storm-related activity, driven by growth in the company’s professional
    category, strong online sales and smaller-ticket outdoor DIY projects, Lowe´s CEO Marvin Ellison said.

    Shares of the company fell about 4% in early trading, after
    having risen 22% this year. It trimmed its annual adjusted margin forecast to a range of 12.3%
    to 12.4%, from a previous range of 12.4% to 12.5%.

    Lowe’s, which generates roughly 75% of sales from the do-it-yourself category,
    has seen demand weaken for projects such as flooring, kitchen and bath remodeling, which typically require refinancing.

    „Until mortgage rates fall, the home improvement industry will continue experiencing stiff headwinds,“ said Emarketer
    analyst Zak Stambor.

    Quarterly gross margins were „a tad light“ at 33.7%, analysts noted,
    likely driven by a low-margin product mix of storm sales.

    „Lowe’s should have skewed to more favorable conditions than HD,“ said David Wagner portfolio manager at Aptus Capital Advisors, which holds Lowe’s ETFs.

    Lowe’s reported a 1.1% drop in same-store sales for the quarter ended Nov.

    1, better than analysts‘ average estimate of a 2.86% decline, according to data compiled by LSEG.

    It earned $2.89 per share on an adjusted basis, beating an estimate
    of $2.82 per share.

    The company expects same-store sales to be down between 3% and 3.5% in 2024 from its prior forecast of a decline in the range of 3.5% to 4%.

    WASHINGTON, 1er octobre (Reuters) – Le secrétaire américain à la Défense, Lloyd Austin, s’est entretenu lundi avec son homologue israélien Yoav Gallant, a fait savoir le département américain de la Défense, après que l’armée israélienne a annoncé avoir lancé des „assauts terrestres ciblés“ contre le Hezbollah dans
    le sud du Liban.

    „Ils sont convenus de la nécessité de démanteler les infrastructures d’attaque le long de la frontière afin de s’assurer que le Hezbollah libanais ne peut pas mener d’attaques du style de celle du 7 octobre contre des communautés du nord d’Israël“, a déclaré le Pentagone.

    Lloyd Austin a réaffirmé qu’une solution diplomatique était nécessaire pour garantir que les civils puissent retourner en toute sécurité chez eux
    des deux côtés de la frontière, ont ajouté ses services dans un communiqué.

    Abbie Chatfield has shared a very telling throwback image of herself and boyfriend Adam Hyde, six months before
    they went Instagram Official.

    The veteran presenter, 29, and the Peking Duk frontman went public with
    their relationship in June.

    However another racy photo, taken before they became a couple, captured Abbie and Adam waiting patiently together in a fast food line,
    with the presenter looking absolutely smitten over the strapping
    musician.

    Abbie had a huge smile on her face in the adorable picture, as she gazed intensely at Adam as
    they chatted while waiting to order.

    She captioned the picture: ‚One year and two days since this iconic
    photo of me being in love with Adam.

    ‚Before we ever even slept together LMAO. „Nah, I don’t have a crush on him anymore“.‘

    The podcast host was braless in the image, and her low-slung
    skirt showed plenty of skin.

    Shortly after they went public with their relationship,
     Abbie opened up about her sex life with her boyfriend in a candid and
    wide-ranging chat on her It’s A Lot podcast.

    She appeared on the bonus Ask Me Anything episode with Adam, in which they discussed
    their budding romance.

    As the new couple fielded questions about their bond, musician Adam cheekily boasted about
    the couple’s sizzling chemistry.

    It comes after Abbie revealed the sexual act she
    would never engage in with her boyfriend.

    She recently opened up about the launch of her ‚kink kit‘ sex toys and admitted when it comes to bedroom fun, it’s strictly a two-person affair. 

    The veteran presenter, 29, whose relationship with the Peking Duk frontman went public
    in June, posted a loved-up image of them to Instagram from November last year. The photo captured Abbie and

    M. Night Shyamalan threw an epic Halloween party in Philadelphia on Saturday night.

    The Sixth Sense director, 54, dressed as the villainous Joker for his ‚Shyamaween‘ bash.

    His makeup was perfectly creepy and his costume was
    from the 2008 film The Dark Knight, which saw the late Heath Ledger
    play the iconic villain.  

    Shyamalan’s wife, Dr. Bhavna Shyamalan, 55, looked beautiful in an amber-colored, Victorian era gown with bats all over it.

    Her makeup was a cross between zombie and goth as she proudly posed next to her talented husband who looked adoringly
    at her.

    The foundation ’supports the grassroots

    communities,‘ according to its website.

    M. Night shot to fame in 1999 with his film
    The Sixth Sense, which celebrated turning 25-years-old in August.

    Shyamalan recently opened up about that film’s impact on his career in an interview with People.

    ‚At this point, there’s so many generations
    of people that have watched [my] different movies,‘ the director said.

    He added that some, people ‚only know me from [2015 movie] The Visit from then on, so they don’t even know about The Sixth
    Sense. So when I think about that, it’s wild.‘

    ‚Each movie, I feel this way — that I don’t know if it’ll
    ever get made. I don’t know if I’ll ever get to make another
    one… „If this is the last one, I want it to just represent me,“‚
    he continued.

    Heath Ledger’s 2008 portrayal of The Joker was M. Night’s inspiration for his
    costume this year

    Shyamalan, who was born in Mahé India but grew up in Penn Valley, Pennsylvania, released two films in the 1990s before The Sixth
    Sense.

    That set off a string a big hits for the filmmaker that includes Unbreakable (2000), Signs (2002) and The Village (2004), that ultimately
    ended with the release of Lady In The Water (2006), which barely covered
    the $70 million budget.

    His biggest box office success was with The Sixth Sense, grossing
    $672.8 million while working with a $40 million budget 25 years ago.

    To date, the film made $6.6 million on its first day, including
    an estimated $2.2 million from the Thursday night previews.

    Indexes: Dow up 0.56%, S&P 500 up 0.15%, Nasdaq down 0.13%

    (Updates with mid-session trading)

    By Johann M Cherian and Purvi Agarwal

    Nov 22 (Reuters) – The S&P 500 and the Dow hovered at
    levels seen more than a week ago on Friday, as investors took comfort
    from data pointing to robust economic activity in the
    world’s biggest economy.

    The domestically focused small-cap Russell 2000 index outperformed large-cap indexes with a 1.3% rise.
    The index hit a more than one-week high and was set for
    weekly advances of nearly 4%.

    A measure of business activity raced to a 31-month high in November,
    boosted by hopes for lower interest rates and more business-friendly
    policies from President-elect Donald Trump’s administration next year.

    „It’s the excitement about the deregulation and the Trump activity that will boost economic action, because executives start making moves ahead of things,“ said Eric Schiffer, chief executive officer at The Patriarch Organization.

    However, Schiffer said strong economic data could make the Fed consider a slower pace of monetary policy easing.

    At 11:29 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 246.13 points, or 0.56%,
    to 44,116.48, the S&P 500 gained 8.99 points, or 0.15%, to 5,957.70 and the Nasdaq Composite lost 24.53 points, or
    0.13%, to 18,947.89.

    Keeping a lid on gains, Alphabet lost 1.7%, following on from Thursday’s 4% drop, as the Department of Justice argued to a
    judge the company was monopolizing online search.

    The S&P 500 communication services sector led declines with a 0.9% loss,
    while a majority of the 11 sectors were in the green led by consumer discretionary stocks .
    Tesla, a popular ‚Trump trade‘, advanced 4%.

    An index tracking S&P 500 value stocks outperformed with a 0.6% rise as investors rotated out of their growth peers .

    On Thursday, the S&P 500 and Dow closed higher, with AI bellwether Nvidia managing modest gains after its quarterly
    forecast. On the day, Nvidia fell 3.1%.

    The three main indexes are on track for weekly gains, with sentiment still strong
    about the positive implications Donald Trump’s tax and tariff policies could
    have for corporates after his win in the presidential election.

    Expectations on the Federal Reserve’s policy
    move in December have recently swayed between a pause and
    a cut, as investors weigh the impact Trump’s policies can have
    on price pressures.

    There is a 59.6% probability the central bank will lower borrowing costs by 25 basis points, as
    per the CME Group’s FedWatch Tool. Most brokerages also back a quarter-point cut.

    Markets were also monitoring a missile exchange
    between Ukraine and Russia after the latter lowered its threshold for
    a nuclear retaliation earlier in the week.

    Among top movers, Gap Inc jumped 9.5% after the Old Navy
    parent raised its annual sales forecast and said the holiday season was off to a „strong start“.

    Intuit lost 4.7% after the TurboTax parent projected second-quarter revenue and
    profit below Wall Street estimates on Thursday.

    Honeywell International advanced 1% after the industrial
    giant said it will sell its personal protective equipment business for about $1.33 billion.

    Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by a 2.9-to-1
    ratio on the NYSE and by a 2.11-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq.

    The S&P 500 posted 71 new 52-week highs and no new lows while
    the Nasdaq Composite recorded 122 new highs and 58 new lows.

    Russell Crowe has argued that the rise of independent politicians are better representing the views of everyday Australians, unlike the two-party-dominated system in the United States. 

    The Oscar-winning actor made the claim in response to podcast host Joe
    Rogan  complaining that Americans were ‚completely trapped in the
    two-party system‘.

    ‚We have the same sort of situation, but we have a very interesting thing that’s happening in Australia at
    the moment, which is the rise of independents,‘ Crowe countered.

    ‚The main parties have to deal with the fact those independents have to bring a
    non-party-line series of points to the argument.

    ‚And it’s working well. It’s working for us. In that it’s making both of the main parties
    re-examine who they are and what they stand for.

    Rogan mused ‚we could use that here, for sure‘, highlighting
    how US politics is completely dominated by
    the Democrat and Republican parties.

    There are other parties, including the Green, Libertarian, and Reform
    parties, but these receive vanishingly few votes
    in comparison.

    Independent candidates can also stand and have been known to perform well on occasion. 

    The Oscar-winning actor (pictured ) made the observation in response to podcast host Joe
    Rogan who complained that Americans were ‚completely trapped in the two-party system‘

    Joe Rogan (pictured) is one of the most powerful media figures in the world 

    Civil rights opponent George Wallace ran a third-party campaign in the 1968 US election which saw him garner 10
    million votes and take five southern states, while another disaffected Democrat, Strom Thurmond, in 1948 carried four southern states on a similarly racist
    platform but with only a million votes.

    The nephew of a president, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., was poised to get on the ballot in dozens of
    states as an independent candidate before he pulled out and backed Republican Donald Trump. 

    He has now been appointed Health secretary in Trump’s incoming cabinet. 

    Trump himself had previously belonged to the Reform Party.

    The former New York property developer had even considered running for president
    in the 2000 election under the banner of that movement – formed by former third-party presidential candidate Ross Perot, who won 19 per cent of the popular vote in 1992
    but gained no electoral college votes.

    Perot was the most popular minority party candidate since former Republican president Teddy Roosevelt
    in 1912 ran as the Bull Moose Party candidate
    – carrying six states including California and
    coming second ahead of Republican William Taft.

    Australia has seen a rise in recent years of nominally independent politicians who have taken votes away from the two
    traditional parties of Labor and the Liberal-National coalition

    This situation is helped by a strong Green party who now have
    12 senators and four members in the House of Representatives. 

    Zali Steggall (pictured) became the first Teal independent to achieve
    huge success when she ousted former prime minister Tony Abbott in his seat in Sydney’s northern beaches at the 2019
    election

    Meanwhile, independent candidates who run on strong climate platforms but are fiscally conservative have been labelled ‚teal‘ candidates.

    This is because they have combined their ‚green‘ views on climate with the traditional ‚blue‘ approach of the centre-right
    Liberal Party.

    Zali Steggall became the first Teal independent to achieve huge success
    when she ousted former prime minister Tony Abbott in his seat
    in Sydney’s northern beaches at the 2019 election.

    In similar fashion, Monique Ryan won the traditionally Liberal seat from former treasurer Josh Frydenberg at the 2022 election. 

    She was one of seven Teals elected, swelling the lower
    house crossbench to 15, with this tally including the four Greens,
    three conservative independents and progressive Andrew Wilkie.

    Crowe’s three-hour conversation with Rogan, which was first aired in August,
    has recently resurfaced in Teal social media adverts.

    They are being pushed by Melbourne philanthropist Simon Holmes à Court, who founded
    Climate 200, which has given campaign funding to some Teal candidates.

    Not all independents elected in 2022 were Teals, however. 

    Maverick independent Bob Katter has just celebrated 50 years in parliament
    (pictured: being congratulated by prime minister Anthony Albanese)

    Dai Lee, a former state Liberal candidate, defeated former Labor frontbencher
    and former NSW Labor premier Kristina Keneally in the south-west Sydney seat of Fowler.

    And, of course, maverick Bob Katter who has just celebrated 50 years in parliament, spending 20 years as a Queensland state MP before serving the
    past three decades in federal parliament as the MP for the regional far north Queensland electorate of
    Kennedy. 

    Among his many mad-hat policies over the years include a bid to teach school kids how to fire rifles and a desire to build a missile shield
    across northern Australia.

    The House of Representatives crossbench grew to 16 in late 2022 when Andrew Gee quit the Nationals in protest
    at its opposition to the Indigenous Voice to Parliament. 

    The Greens and independents make up 11 per cent of the 151-member lower house – the highest proportion of non major party MPs since Federation in 1901.

    Joe Aston got the kind of book launch every first time author dreams of – massive amounts of free publicity online, in newspapers and on TV and radio. 

    And it was all thanks to Anthony Albanese’s ill-informed attack on Aston over what was written in his book, The Chairman’s Lounge – The Inside Story of how
    Qantas sold us out.

    Despite the resultant terrible publicity – which has
    led to him being called ‚upgrade Albo‘ – and calls for an inquiry, Aston told Daily
    Mail Australia his book is ’not a hit job on Anthony
    Albanese‘.

    Aston insisted he’s ’not trying to get a scalp‘, but reiterated that the Prime Minister ‚had a direct line
    to Alan Joyce‘.

    The book claims Mr Albanese got 22 upgrades from economy on Qantas flights
    by personally requesting them from the airline’s then CEO Mr Joyce – which the Prime
    Minister has categorically denied.

    According to unnamed Qantas ‚insiders‘, 11 of the 22 flights Mr Albanese got upgrades for were ‚privately funded‘ and included
    overseas trips to Rome, London, Los Angeles and Honolulu. 

    But instead of addressing the claim, Mr Albanese chose to shoot the messenger and, in turn, shot himself in the foot. 

    He said Aston was using the accusations to sell books and said he was hiding his employment history. 

    ‚I don’t see declarations that he’s a former Liberal Party staffer… I don’t see declarations
    he’s a former Qantas employee,‘ the Prime Minister said. 

    But before the book even gets to the contents
    page there is a photo of Aston that refers to him as the
    then-Qantas corporate communications senior adviser. 

    Joe Aston (pictured) got the kind of book launch every first time author dreams of – massive amounts of free publicity online, in newspapers and on TV and radio

    Anthony Albanese (right) is pictured with his fiance
    Jodie Haydon (left) and then Qantas CEO Alan Joyce on March 31,
    2023 in Sydney, Australia

    And the first chapter of the book reveals that he worked
    for then-Liberal MP Bruce Baird, who held the southern Sydney seat of Cook before
    Scott Morrison. 

    ‚My professional history is not a secret or not disclosed, it’s
    in the first line of the first page of the book,
    ‚ Aston said on Tuesday night, just before his book launch. 

    Though he was grateful for the free publicity Mr Albanese’s response gave the book, Aston was still ’staggered‘ at the untrue claims about him the Prime Minister made. 

    ‚He’s under enormous pressure and I know, I’ve seen this many times with public figures
    and leaders who struggle to see their own part in it, the terrible circumstances that they create,‘ he
    said.

    Extravagant Qantas perk Anthony Albanese FAILED to declare is revealed…
    after two days of denials

    Asked if Mr Albanese had been poorly advised in his attack, Aston, who is a former Australian Financial Review columnist, wonders if the Prime
    Minister ‚even listens to advice at this point‘.

    ‚All he’s doing is talking around the issue and he’s blaming me and he’s blaming other MP’s for also taking upgrades (on Qantas flights).

    ‚He’s avoiding the only thing that he can’t talk about,
    which is, did you ask Qantas for confirmed upgrades on your private holidays when you were the Transport Minister?
    The answer is „yes“ and he’s desperately trying to avoid saying it.‘

    Smelling blood, Opposition leader Peter Dutton said the Prime Minister should refer himself to the anti-corruption commission over the flight
    upgrades.

    Coming on top of Mr Albanese’s tone deaf purchase of a $4.3million clifftop mansion while so many people are struggling to pay their mortgage or rent, the latest blow to his credibility has led to calls for
    him to resign.

    Aston refuses to be drawn on this, though. 

    ‚I never expected this (part of the book) to even this part to get
    this far. I really am shocked at how it’s blown up.

    ‚So to the extent that it has, I would say … anyone who reads the
    book will learn that this book is not a hit job on Anthony Albanese.
    This book is about Qantas. 

    ‚Anthony Albanese is an example of how Qantas influences politicians on both sides of the aisle,
    Labor, Liberal, National, you name it. They’ve been doing it for more than a generation.

    ‚They’re the best influence peddler in Australia. I’m not
    here trying to get a scalp. That’s not what this book is about and it never was.‘

    But the conversation Daily Mail Australia had with Aston mirrors the conversations being had across Australia and eventually winds
    up back on Mr Albanese. 

    ‚Even I’ve underestimated how fed up the public is with the freebie mindset
    of politicians,‘ he said.

    Guests at Joe Aston’s book launch on Tuesday night are pictured pointing for emphasis or to someone they recognise

    There was no shortage of free alcohol (pictured) available at the launch of Joe Aston’s book 

    Joe Aston is pictured in the exclusive Hemmesphere club in Sydney, where his
    book The Chairman’s Lounge was launched

    ‚And unfortunately for Albanese, he’s been in politics a long time and that kind of
    behaviour is quite normalised to him, is what I’ve seen. 

    ‚I mean, he loves the free concert tickets and sitting at the front row of the
    Australian Open Tennis. 

    ‚I went to the Australian Open Tennis as a journalist almost every year for 12 years and
    he was the only Prime Minister (I saw there).

    ‚Those tickets are worth thousands of dollars to sit in the front row of the International Grand Slam.
    He’s the first Prime Minister who I’ve ever seen do that.

    ‚That to me is a sign that he doesn’t quite get what it looks like to others when he’s on the gravy train. And I
    think (the claims in the book are) just another
    example of that.‘

    In Australian politics it’s regular practise for an MP’s travel to be booked in economy, then someone in their office phones the
    airline and asks if their flight can be upgraded. 

    The difference with the Prime Minister is that ‚he had
    a very direct line to Alan Joyce,‘ Aston said.

    ‚The other thing is there’s a difference between an upgrade where
    it’s in the booking and if the seat’s empty when the flight closes, you’ll get upgraded.

    ‚This is different. This is a confirmed upgrade where the ticket is converted
    and you are guaranteed. You’re not going to the airport crossing your fingers
    going „Geez, I hope there is a spare seat“.

    ‚You’re guaranteed. You turn up knowing you’re getting a
    seat and the only person at Qantas who can issue those types of upgrades is the CEO.
    No other executive can do that.

    ‚So it is beyond question that Alan joints authorised these
    upgrades (for Anthony Albanese).‘

    Aston enjoyed many upgrades to the pointy end of planes during his time as a travel journalist, and understands the
    attraction for politicians to get up there. 

    ‚These things are tempting and it’s human nature
    too. Once you’ve experienced the front of the plane, it’s
    very hard to go back.

    ‚For politicians, they run around with all these
    staff and they’ve got chauffeured cars and they fly in business, but
    they don’t get paid like CEOs …

    ‚They’re not in a situation where they can afford to go flying around in the
    front of the plane on personal travel. 

    ‚A normal person would say „Therefore I won’t (fly business class). But (for politicians) it’s a culture of entitlement.‘

    Aston is careful to point out that most people would say politicians are ‚very well paid compared to the average worker‘.

    But that doesn’t stop some MPs from desperately seeking a free ride, whether it’s a flight upgrade, concert tickets or the executive box at sporting events. 

    Late on Wednesday night, a spokeswoman Mr Albanese said ‚The Prime Minister did not ever call Alan Joyce seeking an upgrade‘.

    ‚All travel has been appropriately declared and is a matter of public record.‘

    Daily Mail Australia has contacted Qantas for comment.

    Joe Aston got the kind ᧐f book launch every first time author dreams ᧐f – massive amounts ⲟf
    free publicity online, іn newspapers and on TV аnd radio. 

    And it wɑѕ all tthanks tо Anthony Albanese’ѕ ill-informed attack on Aston oѵer
    wһɑt was written in his book, The Chairman’s Lounge – Tһe Insidе Story οf how Qantas sold սs
    oᥙt.

    Desplite tһe resultant terrible publicity – ѡhich has led to
    hіm being calle ‚upgrade Albo‘ – ɑnd calls for an inquiry, Aston told Daily Mail Australia һіѕ bbook іѕ ’not а hit
    job on Anthony Albanese‘.

    Aston insisted һe’s ’not tгying to get а
    scalp‘, but reiterated that tһe Prime Minister ‚had a
    direct line tо Alan Joyce‘.

    Thhe book claims Ꮇr Albanese ɡot 22 upgraddes from economy ߋn Qantas flights
    Ьy personally requesting tһem from tһe airline’s tһеn CEO Mг Joyce
    – which tһe Prime Minister һas categorically denied.

    Ꭺccording tо unnamed Qantas ‚insiders‘, 11 of the 22 flights
    Mг Albanese got upgrades fоr were ‚privately funded‘ annd included overseas trips
    to Rome, London, Ꮮߋs Angeles and Honolulu. 

    Bսt instead of addressing tһe claim, Mr Albanese chose to shoot the
    messenger and, in tuгn, shot himsеlf in thе foot. 

    He saіd Aston was usinng the accusations to ell
    boks аnd said hе was hiding hiѕ employment history. 

    ‚I ԁon’t see declarations tһat һe’s a formеr Liberal Party staffer… Ι don’t see declarations һe’ѕ ɑ former Qantas employee,‘ tһe Prime Minister ѕaid. 

    Butt Ƅefore thhe book еven gets to the content page tһere is a photo оf Aston that refers to hiim aѕ the then-Qantas corporate communications senior adviser.

    Bruyce Baird, ԝһo held the southern Sydney eat оf Cook bеfore Scott
    Morrison. 

    ‚Μy professional history іs not a secret оr not disclosed, іt’ѕ in the fіrst line of the first
    ⲣage of the book,‘ Aston ѕaid on Tuesdаy night, just before
    hiis book launch. 

    Tһough he waѕ grateful forr tһe free publicity Mr Albanese’ѕ response gavе tһе
    book, Aston wɑs ѕtill ’staggered‘ at thе untrue
    claims aЬout him the Prime Minister madе. 

    ‚Ꮋe’ѕ under enormmous pressure ɑnd I know, І’ve seen thius many times with public figures and

    Australian politicians ɑre almoѕt ɑlways opring to fly with Qantas on taxpayer-funded trips, ⅾespite Virgin offering cheaper tickets.

    Federal MPs flww ѡith thе national carrdier fоr 80 pper cent of ᴡork trips last year despitе it not
    alwayѕ ƅeing tһe cheapest route, ɑccording to travel datra ρrovided tо thhe government.

    Ꮃhile politicians аnd their staffers аre required to book
    the cjeapest flight, itt аlso haѕ to be thhe mⲟst efficient,
    ѡith Qantas offering the mоst routes bedtween major cities.

    MPs аre banned from accruing frequent flyer ⲣoints ⲟn taxpayer-funded trips ⅼike ordinary Aussies ⅽan, bbut tһey can cann
    receive lifetime status credits, ԝhich alⅼows access tо airport lounges and flight
    upgrades.

    ‚Нow else can one explain the extraordinary
    dominance оf Qantas in securing bookings by parliamentarians and tһeir staff?‘ Myriam Robin wrote iin an opinion piece fоr the Australian Financial Review.

    ‚Ꭲheгe’s nothіng like accruing status credits on ѕomeone else’s dime.‘

    ‚Ӏt felt a bit more difficult, ƅut іt is safe. Ᏼut yοu’гe right, I’m

    ‚That becⲟmes your obsession becausе y᧐u’rе
    wⲟrking tthe entirе time to get tо a certaіn weight.

    ‚Sо then you end up talking aЬout іt, ɑnd then it juѕt sounds ⅼike an actor ɡoing ᧐n and on about how much weight they lost.

    and angry at myѕelf for making suсh a big deal about that part, beсause you just dօ what you’re ****ing
    supposed to do. So this timе I wɑs lіke, ‚I’m not ɡoing to ԁo tһаt‘.‘
