The author tries to reveal certain correlations between the Hebrews' conceptions of the 'olām as world historical time and simultaneously as a sort of "fabric" of the universal temporal-spatial integrity, and some of their religious, historiosophical and creative principles, doing this in comparison and confrontation with the Ancient Greek ideas of the order of "kosmos", world history and place of an individual in it. Special attention is given to the consideration of religious and ethical principles of the Hebrews' "beginning of wisdom".
