Synthesis and Conclusions --Bibliography --Index of Authors --Index of Topics --Index of ReferencesThis monograph examines the problem of universally inclusive language in the book of Revelation and the resulting narrative tension created by narrowly exclusive language. Analysis is conducted by placing relevant texts within their literary-narrative context and through consideration of how the author understood and appropriated biblical traditions. A key feature of this study is its examination of four early Jewish documents with significant similarities to the problem being examined in Revelation. From these documents (Tobit; Similitudes of Enoch [1 Enoch 37-71]; 4 Ezra; and, Animal Apocalypse [1 Enoch 85-90]) a contextual picture emerges which allows a fuller understanding of Revelation's distinctive approach toward the problem of the fate of the nations. This study contends that the interpretive strategies applied to biblical traditions in Revelation have their roots in the wider early Jewish milieu. From this comparative analysis, identifiable patterns with regard to the role of 'universal terminology' in the communicative strategy of John's Apocalypse emerge.Beihefte zur Zeitschrift für die neutestamentliche Wissenschaft und die Kunde der älteren Kirche ;Beiheft 143.Apocalyptic literatureComparative studiesApocalyptic Literature.Book of Revelation.Early Jewish eschatology.Fate of the Nations / Fate of the Gentiles.Universalism.Apocalyptic literature228.066BC 7390rvkHerms Ronald1559970MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910788426403321An apocalypse for the church and for the world3825580UNINA01439nas 2200397 c 450 991089637670332120260218110444.0(DE-599)ZDB3061753-4(OCoLC)1247422745(DE-101)1232188581(CKB)4910000000550436(DE-599)3061753-4(EXLCZ)99491000000055043620210426a20209999 |y |spaur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierEstadística panameña3Situación económicaSección 312[...]Estimaciones de la superficie sembrada y cosecha arroz, maíz y fijol de bejucoInstituto Nacional de Estadística y Censo[Panamá][Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censo][2020]-Online-RessourceGesehen am 12.08.2021Estadística Panameña / Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censo. 3, Situación económica. 312.
