Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Apocalypse, Vol. 3: A Series of Special Lectures on the Revelation of Jesus Christ, With Revised d104 Request has been made that this concluding volume be accompanied with a chart, or table, to exhibit to the eye, in one View, the several parts of these Apocalyptic presentations, and their relations to each other in the order of events as they are to occur. Something of such a chart has therefore been placed at the beginning of this volume. Though full justice can hardly be done to the subject in that way, a brief statement of the periods and events in their general outlines, as they are con templated in this wonderful prophecy, is thus furnished. And may help the reader to a clearer conception of the matter, as it lies in the apprehension of the author, and is elaborated in these Lectures.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Apocalypse Explained, According to the Spiritual Sense, Vol. 3 of 6: In Which Are Revealed the Arcana Which Are There Predicted, and Have Been Hitherto Deeply Concealed That corners signify all things, because they signify extremes, for the reason Spoken of above, because extremes include and comprehend all things, appears manifestly from some Of the statutes given to the sons Of Israel. Thus it is said, Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard (lev. Xix. And again: They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave of the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh (xxi. Again: And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest (xix. And again: And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleanings of thy harvest: thou shall leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger (xxiii. The reason why such statutes were given them cannot be known, unless it be previously known what is signified by the hair Of the head, what by the heard, what by a field, and at the same time what is meant by a corner. By the hair of the head, and by the beard, is signified the ultimate principle of the life of man, which is called the sensual corporeal principle; and by a field is signified the church; and by reaping, or the harvest, the truth Of doctrine. By these statutes therefore was represented, that the extreme parts or principles should be preserved, because they signify all; for unless there be extremes, the middle principles are not kept together, but are dissipated, comparatively as the interiors of man would be dissipated unless there were skins to encompass them. The case is the same in every thing, conse quently also in what is signified by the hair of the head, by the beard, and by the harvest Of the field.' Now inasmuch as a field signified the church, and the harvest the truths belonging to the church, therefore by their not making clean riddance Of the corners of their fields when they reaped the harvest, was signified the conservation Of all things which are signified by the harvest Of the field.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Apocalypse Explained According to the Spiritual Sense, Vol. 4 of 6: Chap. XI. To Chap. XII By ultimate truth, or truth in the ultimate of order, is meant sensual truth, such as is in the literal sense Of the Word, for those who are merely sensual: divine truth in its descent pro ceeds according to degrees, from the supreme or inmost to the lowest or ultimate: Divine Truth in the supreme degree is of such a nature as the Divine [sphere] which immediately pro ceeds from the Lord, thus as the divine truth above the heavens, which, being infinite, cannot come to the perception of any angel; but the divine truth of the first degree is what comes to the perception of the angels of the third or inmost heaven, and is called divine truth celestial; from this is derived the wisdom of those angels: the divine truth of the second degree is what comes to the perception of the angels of the second or middle heaven, and constitutes their wisdom and intelligence, and is called divine truth Spiritual: the divine truth of the third degree is what comes to the perception of the angels Of the ultimate or first heaven, and constitutes their intelligence and science, and is called divine truth celestial and spiritual natural: but the divine truth Of the fourth degree is what comes to the perception of the men of the church who are living in the world, and con stitutes their intelligence and science; this is called divine truth natural, and the ultimate Of this is called divine truth sensual.

Download or read book Apocalypse Against Empire written by Anathea Portier-Young and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 167 B.C.E. marked the beginning of a period of intense persecution for the people of Judea, as Seleucid emperor Antiochus IV Epiphanes attempted -- forcibly and brutally -- to eradicate traditional Jewish religious practices. In Apocalypse against Empire Anathea Portier-Young reconstructs the historical events and key players in this traumatic episode in Jewish history and provides a sophisticated treatment of resistance in early Judaism. Building on a solid contextual foundation, Portier-Young argues that the first Jewish apocalypses emerged as a literature of resistance to Hellenistic imperial rule. In particular, Portier-Young contends, the book of Daniel, the Apocalypse of Weeks, and the Book of Dreams were written to supply an oppressed people with a potent antidote to the destructive propaganda of the empire -- renewing their faith in the God of the covenant and answering state terror with radical visions of hope.

Download or read book After the Apocalypse written by Srećko Horvat and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-02-11 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this post-apocalyptic rollercoaster ride, philosopher Srećko Horvat invites us to explore the Apocalypse in terms of ‘revelation’ (rather than as the ‘end’ itself). He argues that the only way to prevent the end – i.e., extinction – is to engage in a close reading of various interconnected threats, such as climate crisis, the nuclear age and the ongoing pandemic. Drawing on the work of neglected philosopher Günther Anders, this book outlines a philosophical approach to deal with what Horvat, borrowing a term from climate science and giving it a theological twist, calls ‘eschatological tipping points’. These are no longer just the nuclear age or climate crisis, but their collision, conjoined with various other major threats – not only pandemics, but also the viruses of capitalism and fascism. In his investigation of the future of places such as Chernobyl, the Mediterranean and the Marshall Islands, as well as many others affected by COVID-19, Horvat contends that the ‘revelation’ appears simple and unprecedented: the alternatives are no longer socialism or barbarism – our only alternatives today are a radical reinvention of the world, or mass extinction. After the Apocalypse is an urgent call not only to mourn tomorrow’s dead today but to struggle for our future while we can.
