Download or read book A Jewish Apocalyptic Framework of Eschatology in the Epistle to the Hebrews written by Jihye Lee and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to scholarly belief that the author of the Epistle to the Hebrews envisions the transcendent, heavenly world as the eschatological inheritance of God's people, Jihye Lee argues that a version of an Urzeit-Endzeit eschatological framework - as observed in some Jewish apocalyptic texts - provides a plausible background against which the arguments of Hebrews are most comprehensively explained. Instead of transcendence to the heavenly world that will come after the destruction of the shakable creation, Lee suggests the possibility of a more dualistic new world. By first defining Urzeit-Endzeit eschatology, Lee is then able to explore its place in both pre and post 70 CE Second Temple Judaism. In examining Enoch, the Qumran Texts, Jubilees, the Liber Antiquitatum Biblicarum, 4 Ezra and 2 Baruch and finally the Book of Revelation, Lee compares a multitude of eschatological visions and the different depictions of the transformation of the world, judgement and the new world to come. Bringing these texts together to analyse the issue of God's Rest in Hebrews, and the nature of the Unshakable Kingdom, Lee concludes that Hebrews envisions the kingdom as consisting of both the revealed heavenly world and the renewed creation as the eschatological venue of God's dwelling place with his people.

Book Synopsis The Jewish Apocalyptic Tradition and the Shaping of New Testament Thought by : Benjamin E. Reynolds
Download or read book The Jewish Apocalyptic Tradition and the Shaping of New Testament Thought written by Benjamin E. Reynolds and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2017-04-01 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contemporary study of Jewish apocalypticism today recognizes the wealth and diversity of ancient traditions concerned with the “unveiling” of heavenly matters‒‒understood to involve revealed wisdom, the revealed resolution of time, and revealed cosmology‒‒in marked contrast to an earlier focus on eschatology as such. The shift in focus has had a more direct impact on the study of ancient “pseudepigraphic” literature, however, than in New Testament studies, where the narrower focus on eschatological expectation remains dominant. In this Companion, an international team of scholars draws out the implications of the newest scholarship for the variety of New Testament writings. Each entry presses the boundaries of current discussion regarding the nature of apocalypticism in application to a particular New Testament author. The cumulative effect is to reveal, as never before, early Christianity, its Christology, cosmology, and eschatology, as expressions of tendencies in Second Temple Judaism.
Book Synopsis Cosmology and Eschatology in Jewish and Christian Apocalypticism by : Yarbro Collins
Download or read book Cosmology and Eschatology in Jewish and Christian Apocalypticism written by Yarbro Collins and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with Jewish and Christian apocalyptic texts and movements from the second century BCE through the fourth century CE. It focuses on two major themes, cosmology and eschatology; that is, views of structure of the universe including its religious function and interpretations of history and the future. The detailed historical and literary analysis of these themes are introduced by an essay on the cultural gap between the original contexts of these texts and those of readers today and how that gap may be bridged. The book deals with the interrelations between post-biblical Judaism and early Christianity. The relevant Jewish texts and history are discussed thoroughly in their own right. The Christian material is approached in a way which shows both its continuity with Jewish tradition and its distinctiveness.
Book Synopsis The Method & Message of Jewish Apocalyptic, 200 BC-AD 100 by : David Syme Russell
Download or read book The Method & Message of Jewish Apocalyptic, 200 BC-AD 100 written by David Syme Russell and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Jews and Christians alike, this whole apocalyptic literature is of the utmost significance because of its claim to be "the child of prophecy". But for Christians, it has an additional importance. Not only is it, in its teaching, a continuation of the Old Testament, it is also an anticipation of the New Testament. The apocalyptic literature helps bridge the gap between the Old Testament and the New Testament and illustrates certain significant developments in religious belief, especially of an eschatalogical and messianic kind.
Book Synopsis The Open Heaven by : Christopher Rowland
Download or read book The Open Heaven written by Christopher Rowland and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2002-08-01 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Open Heaven offers a comprehensive discussion of Jewish apocalyptic literature and themes in the Second Temple period and in early Christianity. In it there is a sustained challenge to the widespread view that apocalypticism is a form of eschatology, and, it has been widely recognised as a significant contribution to the discussion of apcocalypticism in religion since it was first published twenty years ago. By concentrating on the revelatory character of apocalyptic texts rather than their diverse contents the author suggests that it is this aspect of the literature which best enables us to understand their distinctive religion. The book offers a sustained argument for the iew that apocalyptic literature is primarily about the disclosure of heavenly wisdom which offers recipients an understanding of life in the present. He also suggests that there ma be some evidence to support the view that apocalypses include reports of visionary experience. The approach to apocalypticism in early Christianity stresses the importance of the visionary element as a decisive element in the history of Christa origins.

Book Synopsis Purifying the Consciousness in Hebrews by : Joshua D. A. Bloor
Download or read book Purifying the Consciousness in Hebrews written by Joshua D. A. Bloor and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-02-23 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joshua D. A. Bloor argues that the purification of the consciousness of sin, via Jesus' perpetual heavenly blood offering, is a vital motif for understanding Hebrews' sacrificial argumentation, and vice-versa. Jesus' 'objective' earthly achievements are many, yet only his 'subjective' heavenly blood offering purges the heavenly tabernacle and subsequently the consciousness of sin. Bloor views the Levitical cult as having a positive role in Hebrews, with Levitical 'guilt' foreshadowing and informing Hebrews' notion of the 'consciousness of sin'. Levitical sacrifices could purge the consciousness, but only Jesus' heavenly blood can offer complete perpetual purgation. This blood is a qualitative type of purgation which continually speaks in heaven, offering eternal assurance for the recipients regarding their consciousness of sin. Bloor begins with the 'defiled consciousness' and situates the world of Hebrews within cultic defilement, enabling the consciousness of sin and its cosmic implications to be properly understood. From here, the solution to a defiled consciousness is explored by examining Hebrews' cultic argumentation. Bloor highlights the distinctive purposes inherent in both Jesus' earthly and heavenly achievements, with the latter concerned particularly with Yom Kippur imagery and the purgation of the consciousness. Bloor concludes by differentiating between Jesus' session, present heavenly activity and perpetual heavenly blood offering. Throughout this volume, Bloor engages, critiques and advances current discourse concerning the nature and timing of Jesus' offering in Hebrews.
Book Synopsis Apocalypticism in the Bible and Its World by : Frederick J. Murphy
Download or read book Apocalypticism in the Bible and Its World written by Frederick J. Murphy and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apocalypticism is not a peripheral topic in biblical studies. It represents the central, characteristic transformation of Hebrew thought in the period of the Second Temple. It therefore constituted the worldview of Jesus, Paul, and the earliest Christians, and it is the context in which the New Testament books were written. In this volume, Frederick Murphy defines apocalypticism while discussing its origins, where it comes into play in the Hebrew Bible, and how it relates to Jesus and the New Testament.

Book Synopsis The Spatiotemporal Eschatology of Hebrews by : Luke Woo
Download or read book The Spatiotemporal Eschatology of Hebrews written by Luke Woo and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-07-11 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two coexisting realities classified under New Testament eschatology: the temporal and spatial. While much scholarly attention has focused on the temporal, Luke Woo argues that the spatial aspect is either neglected or relegated to Platonic or cosmological categories. Woo thus seeks to provide a holistic understanding, by investigating these realities for believers under the heavenly tabernacle motif in the Epistle to the Hebrews. Woo posits that the author of Hebrews presents the heavenly tabernacle and all its high priestly activity in order to eschatologically situate, orient, and ground believers; thus enabling believers to actualize their heavenly, priestly identity by serving as priests on earth. Woo uses Edward Soja's Tripartite Critical Spatiality to analyze the heavenly tabernacle's Firstspace, Secondspace, and Thirdspace features found in Hebrews 4:14; 8:1–5; 9:1–14. He suggests that Christ, in his resurrection and ascension, enters an actualized, heavenly tabernacle, which allows believers to spiritually occupy that sanctuary space in the presence of God, establishing a spatial orientation for believers who can identify as heavenly priests and be motivated to serve as such as they live on earth.

Book Synopsis Divine Action in Hebrews by : Zondervan,
Download or read book Divine Action in Hebrews written by Zondervan, and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen renewed interest in divine action, but much of the literature tends to focus on the science-theology discussion. Resulting from multi-year work of the Scripture and Doctrine Seminar, part of KLC's Scripture Collective, this book attends to the portrayal of divine action in one major biblical text, namely Hebrews. In the New Testament, Hebrews is on par with Romans in terms of importance but has too often been overlooked. Contributors to this volume explore the many different ways in which divine action is foregrounded and portrayed in Hebrews. As its name indicates, Hebrews overflows with Old Testament intertextuality, which also makes it a fertile ground for analysis of divine action stretching back into the Old Testament and opening out into different parts of the NT. The essays in this volume: rigorously work the interface of theology and exegesis, all related to Hebrews; offer an overview of the current state of discussion of divine action and the importance of exploring divine action in specific biblical texts, with special reference to William Abraham's recent 4 volume work with OUP; provide an overview of the reception history of Hebrews in theologies of divine action; explore how this has this played out in historical theology and what a retrieval of Hebrews for a theology of divine action might mean today; explore the relationship between the doctrine of God and divine action in Hebrews, including an engagement with classical theism; provocatively explore divine action in the OT, creation, and eschatology in Hebrews; explore the major theme in Hebrews of divine action through the ongoing priesthood of Jesus as portrayed in Hebrews; relate this all to preaching Hebrews today and to spiritual formation. The book's conclusion reflects on the primary action of God speaking in Hebrews.
