现代叙述学理论把人物的心理描写分为“外部视点”与“内部视点”,前者使用直接引语,引用人物的所思所想,后者则由人物予以转述,使用间接引语。《圣经.旧约》叙述中的心理描写绝大多数表现为直接引语,但在某些语境下,“说”可以转化成“想”,直接引语可以转化成间接引语。在叙述功能上,由外部视点决定的直接描写为阐释性的,而由内部视点决定的间接描写则为反思性的,呈现出复杂多变的内心世界,构成“圆形人物”的一个重要方面。

Modern narrative theory divides the psychological description of characters into “external viewpoint” and “internal point of view”. The former uses direct quotation to refer to the thinking of characters and the latter is quoted by characters to use indirect quotation. Most of the psychological descriptions in the narrative of the Old Testament are presented as direct quotations, but in some contexts, “say” can be transformed into “want” and direct quotations can be converted into indirect quotations. In the narrative function, the direct depiction determined by the external viewpoint is interpretative, while the indirect depiction determined by the internal viewpoint is reflective, presenting a complex and changeable inner world, which constitutes an important aspect of the “circular figure” .
