Book Temple Propaganda

    Book Details:
  • Author : Robert Doran SJ
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2023-11-14
  • ISBN : 1666786136
  • Pages : 132 pages

Download or read book Temple Propaganda written by Robert Doran SJ and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work first addresses the unity of 2 Maccabees, arguing that the epitome is a unified piece, separate from the prefixed letters. The author then explores the syntax and style of the epitome, noting rhetorical features and arguing that the work uses a nicety of syntax associated with classical, literary writers. The analysis of the narrative reveals a three-fold structure: (a) 2 Macc 3--the attack of Heliodorus; (b) 2 Macc 4:1--10:9--the profanation of the temple and its purification; (c) 2 Macc 10:10--15:36--the defense of the temple. Besides the theme of the defense of the temple, this analysis also revealed the theme defending the Jews against attacks that they are anti-social. Finally, the author explores the epitome in relation to Hellenistic historiography. He argues against the notion that the epitome of 2 Maccabees belongs to the genre of 'pathetic history,' and instead demonstrates that the work belongs to the sub-genre of the defense of a temple by its god.

Book History of New Testament Times

Download or read book History of New Testament Times written by Robert Henry Pfeiffer and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1949 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of New Testament Times: With an Introduction to the Apocrypha After eight years, later than anticipated, I present here the sequel and completion of my Introduction to the Old Testament. The unexpectedly warm reception and generous appraisal of that book had encouraged me to write an Introduction to the Apocrypha in the same style and for the same public; but after completing it, I could not resist the temptation to preface it with a history of the period in which the Apocrypha were written. The incredibly favorable reviews and astonishing wide circulation of the first volume produced in me a sense of duty - a most distressing feeling - urging the completion of the work. In addition to what seemed to me a royal command to undertake this considerable labor, I may adduce two other reasons as my excuse for inflicting on long-suffering readers another bulky tome.
