Eschatological priesthood in the Dead Sea scrolls. The image of eschatological priesthood in the Dead Sea scrolls -- The historical roots of the eschatological priesthood -- The traditional roots of the eschatological priesthood -- Summary and conclusions.Departing from scholarship dedicated to the socio-historical realities of priesthood at Qumran, this book explores, in two parts, the most pervasive literary representations of priesthood in the Dead Sea Scrolls as a reflection of the religious worldview of the Qumran community and broader segments of Second Temple society. Part one compares depictions of otherworldly priesthood in non-sectarian and sectarian documents. Part two examines the historical and traditional roots of portrayals of messianic/eschatological priesthood. The study reveals a fresh understanding of the integral role of priestly imagery in the tension-filled eschatological identity of the Qumran community. It concludes with a consideration of the relationship of the evidence treated to the phenomenon of democratization of priestly holinesses in rabbinic Judaism and Christianity.Studies on the texts of the desert of Judah ;v. 86.Priests, JewishHistoryQumran communityHistoryJewsHistory586 B.C.-70 A.DJudaismHistoryPost-exilic period, 586 B.C.-210 A.DElectronic books.Priests, JewishHistory.Qumran communityHistory.JewsHistoryJudaismHistory296.1/55Angel Joseph L516358MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910460152103321Otherworldly and eschatological priesthood in the Dead Sea scrolls2285124UNINA
