The Christian Topography, a sixth-century Byzantine Christian work, presents such a cosmology. Its theory is based on the “pattern” revealed to Moses on Mount Sinai when he was told to build the Tabernacle and its implements “after their pattern, which is being shown thee on the Mount.” (Exod. 25: 40). The book demonstrates, through texts and images, the motifs that link the Tabernacle and Creation. It traces the long chain of transmission that connects the Jewish and Christian traditions from Syria and ancient Israel to France and Spain from the first through the fourteenth century, revealing new models of interaction between Judaism and Christianity.Jewish and Christian Perspectives Series25.Cosmology in artJewish art and symbolismThemes, motivesArt, ByzantineThemes, motivesJudaismRelationsChristianityChristianity and other religionsJudaismElectronic books.Cosmology in art.Jewish art and symbolismThemes, motives.Art, ByzantineThemes, motives.JudaismRelationsChristianity.Christianity and other religionsJudaism.704.9/482Laderman Shulamith914031MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465440003321Images of cosmology in Jewish and Byzantine art2047852UNINA
