The motif provided order to lived experiences under empire (the present), in view of ancestral traditions and cultural heritage (the past), and inspired outlooks assuring hope, deliverance, and restoration (the future). Four Kingdoms Motifs Before and Beyond the Book of Daniel includes thirteen essays that explore the reach and redeployment of the motif in classical and ancient Near Eastern writings, Jewish and Christian scriptures, texts among the Dead Sea Scrolls, Apocrypha and pseudepigrapha, depictions in European architecture and cartography, as well as patristic, rabbinic, Islamic, and African writings from antiquity through the Mediaeval eras"--$cProvided by publisher 410 0$aThemes in biblical narrative. 606 $aRELIGION / Biblical Studies / Exegesis & Hermeneutics$2bisacsh 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 610 $aReligion 615 7$aRELIGION / Biblical Studies / Exegesis & Hermeneutics 676 $a224/.506 702 $aPerrin$b Andrew B. 702 $aStuckenbruck$b Loren T. 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bJSTOR 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476893803321 996 $aFour kingdom motifs before and beyond the book of Daniel$94146559 997 $aUNINA
