Summary: Both Judaism and Christianity have authorized clergy, charged with fulfilling a multitude of tasks in their respective communities. They teach, provide pastoral care, and preach. They lead worship, hold services and offer counseling regarding all aspects of life. They perform religious rites at the beginning and end of life as well as in-between. They make decisions regarding religious questions, serve as administrators, and possibly even mediate ‛between heaven and earth’. The concrete forms of realization and the functions of the office are not only defined through theological specification but are also subject to trends and influences. This in turn leads to constant change and adaptation.Summary: Judentum und Christentum haben ihre offiziell beauftragten Amtsträger, um die vielfältigen Aufgaben der Gemeinschaft zu erfüllen: zu sammeln und zu lehren, seelsorglich tätig zu sein und zu predigen, Gottesdienste zu leiten und Lebenshilfe zu geben, Rituale zu vollziehen am Beginn des Lebens, an dessen Ende und mitten im Leben, in religiösen Fragen zu entscheiden, administrativ tätig zu werden und vielleicht sogar ‛zwischen Himmel und Erde’ zu vermitteln.Die konkreten Verwirklichungsformen und Funktionen des Amtes (und der Amtsträger) sind dabei einem ständigen Wandel unterworfen. Mit diesem Funktionswandel reagieren Religionsgemeinschaften auf die sich verändernden Bedingungen des Glaubens und der religiösen Praxis. Die Beiträge gehen diesen Erwartungen an geistliche Amtsträger, an ihre Identität und Legitimation im Wandel der letzten Jahrhunderte nach und bringen diese auf zwei Ebenen zur Sprache: auf der Ebene der Leitbilder und auf der Ebene der realen Erscheinungsformen, die die jeweiligen geschichtlichen, kulturellen und sozialen Gegebenheiten hervorgebracht haben.
