Ultimate Things : An Introduction To Jewish And Christian Apocalyptic Liter
$27.99
“Hearty thanks to Greg Carey for this wide-ranging survey of classical Jewish and Christian apocalyptic discourse. Uniquely comprehensive, the volume treats the full range of ancient apocalyptic imagination from 1 Enoch to the apocalypses of Peter and Paul. Such key topics as the Dead Sea Scrolls, the thought of Jesus and Paul, and the Shepherd of Hermas are all included. Readers are sure to appreciate Carey’s keen insights, balanced summaries of scholarship, and sane direction amid heated controversies. His introduction should become one of the first places instructors direct students interested in both scriptural and extra-canonical apocalyptic writings.”
