Book Description

0819142905 978-0819142900 October 16, 1984
A detailed critical analysis of various apocalyptic texts which poses a solution to the problem concerned with the method of studying allusive Old Testament material, particularly from Daniel. This study shows how Daniel helped mold the eschatological thinking of both Jews and Christians around the time of Christ.

This book is a handy compendium of passages in relation to which aspects of the effective history of Daniel may be reconstructed.>>>> (Journal Of Biblical Literature )

...his argumentation is surely convincing. His impressive study must be recommended to all scholars who take an interest in early Jewish and early Christian hermeneutics.>>>> (Journal For The Study Of Judaism )

...a competent and highly technical work, having various possible implications for the interpretation of the book of Revelation...>>>> (David Wenham Journal For The Study Of Judaism )

...clearly set out and cogently argued. It marks a real advance in its field of studies and should be commended to the attention of scholars.>>>> (Barnabas Lindars Journal For The Study Of Judaism )
