Book Synopsis Yetzer Anthropologies in the Apocalypse of Abraham by : Andrei A. Orlov
Download or read book Yetzer Anthropologies in the Apocalypse of Abraham written by Andrei A. Orlov and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2021-09-08 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Andrei A. Orlov examines the imagery of "inclination" or yetzer found in the Apocalypse of Abraham. He argues that the text operates with several yetzer anthropologies, some of which are reminiscent of early biblical models, while others are similar to later rabbinic notions. Although the author focuses on the traditions found in the Apocalypse of Abraham, he also treats the evolution of the yetzer symbolism in its full historical and interpretive complexity through a broad variety of Jewish and Christian sources, from the creational narratives of the Hebrew Bible to later rabbinic testimonies. He further argues that a close analysis of the yetzer anthropologies found in the Apocalypse of Abraham challenges previous scholarly hypotheses that yetzer was only sexualized and gendered for the first time in post-Amoraic sources.

Download or read book The Apocalypse of Abraham written by George H. Box and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-29 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “What is desired in thine heart I will tell thee, because thou hast sought to see the ten plagues which I have prepared for the heathen. Hear what I divulge to thee, so shall it come to pass.” Considered by many to be 'the last important product of the Apocalyptic movement', 'The Apocalypse of Abraham' is an apocryphon, a work that belongs to a body of prophetic Abrahamic literature flourishing about the time of Christ. "The Book is essentially Jewish," writes George H. Box, with "features . . . which suggest Essene origin." From the Essenes it passed, he suggested, "to Ebionite circles . . . and thence, in some form, found its way into Gnostic circles." The text details the Destruction of the Temple and thus was written after 70 AD. It is considered part of the Apocalyptic literature but not regarded as authoritative scripture by Jews or any Christian group. This enhanced edition of 'The Apocalypse of Abraham' is fully annotated with notes and footnotes and features a newly revised version of the definitive George H. Box translation. Considered by many to be 'the last important product of the Apocalyptic movement', 'The Apocalypse of Abraham' is an apocryphon, a work that belongs to a body of prophetic Abrahamic literature flourishing about the time of Christ.
Book Synopsis Heavenly Priesthood in the Apocalypse of Abraham by : Andrei A. Orlov
Download or read book Heavenly Priesthood in the Apocalypse of Abraham written by Andrei A. Orlov and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Apocalypse of Abraham is a vital source for understanding both Jewish apocalypticism and mysticism. Written anonymously soon after the destruction of the Second Jerusalem Temple, the text envisions heaven as the true place of worship and depicts Abraham as an initiate of celestial priesthood. Andrei A. Orlov focuses on the central rite of the Abraham story – the scapegoat ritual that receives a striking eschatological reinterpretation in the text. He demonstrates that the development of the sacerdotal traditions in the Apocalypse of Abraham, along with a cluster of Jewish mystical motifs, represents an important transition from Jewish apocalypticism to the symbols of early Jewish mysticism. In this way, Orlov offers unique insight into the complex world of the Jewish sacerdotal debates in the early centuries of the Common Era. The book will be of interest to scholars of early Judaism and Christianity, Old Testament studies, and Jewish mysticism and magic.

Book Synopsis The Apocalypse of Abraham by : G H Box
Download or read book The Apocalypse of Abraham written by G H Box and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-09 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Apocalypse of Abraham, which has been preserved in old Slavonic literature, falls into two distinct parts (cf. the somewhat similar case of The Ascension of Isaiah). The first part, contained in chaps. i.-viii., consists of a Midrashic narrative based upon the legend of Abraham's conversion from idolatry, which has several peculiar features.1 The second part (chaps. ix.-xxxii.) is purely apocalyptic in character, and contains a revelation made to Abraham about the future of his race, after his (temporary) ascent into the heavenly regions, under the guidance of the archangel Jaoel, who here seems to play the part of Metatron-Michael. It is based upon the account of Abraham's trance-vision described in Genesis xv.-a favorite theme for apocalyptic speculation. In the Book, as it lies before us, the two parts are organically connected. Thus in chap. x. the archangel says: I am the one who was commissioned to set on fire thy father's house together with him, because he displayed reverence for dead (idols)-an allusion to the narrative of chap. viii.; and the general plan of the Whole work seems to be based upon the idea that Abraham's dissatisfaction with the idol-worship by which he was surrounded, which found vent in his strong protest to his father Terah (chaps. i.-viii.), appealed so much to the divine favor, that the archangel Jaoel was specially sent by God to instruct him and initiate him into the knowledge of heavenly mysteries. Whether the apocalyptic portion ever existed in a shorter and independent form will be discussed below.

The Apocalypse of Abraham is a classic piece of Apocalyptic literature in the same tradition as the Book of Enoch. Preserved in Slavonic, probably from Greek originals, both the Apocalypse of Abraham and the Testament of Abraham are presented together with insightful commentary from noted religious studies scholars G.H.

Book Synopsis The Apocalypse of Abraham by : George Herbert Box
Download or read book The Apocalypse of Abraham written by George Herbert Box and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-18 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Herbert Box discusses here a pseudepigraphic work of the Old Testament; the Apocalypse of Abraham. A prime example of the early apocalyptic literature, no copies of this document survives in Hebrew, Greek or other ancient languages. Although the original manuscript is dated to the late 1st or 2nd century AD, the only surviving manuscript today is in Slavonic script. Despite this, the age and traditional sources of the writing have sparked some interest from religious scholars. The author translates and gives his own commentary to the Apocalypse of Abraham, with hundreds of annotations of the text cross-referencing books of the Old and New Testament. In providing such an exhaustive and heavily annotated analysis, George Herbert Box seeks to prove the value and relevance of this text in the wider Judeo-Christian tradition. In spite of its origins, the Apocalypse of Abraham is considered non-canonical and of little importance in both Judaism and Christianity. However, its unique characters and narration of how the apocalypse will unfold roused new interest since the 19th century, alongside other apocryphal texts such as the Book of Jasher.
