A range of expert contributors analyse specific themes and passages, and also explore wider methodological questions, aiming particularly to engage with the ground-breaking work in this field of Steve Moyise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDivided into three sections, the book first focuses on hermeneutical questions, such as the role of 'typology' in interpretation, and the relationship between the 'original meaning' of a scriptural text and the sense it acquires in a new literary context. In the following section, a series of chapters offers detailed exegetical engagement with the Book of Revelation. These probe the scriptural background of some of its major theological themes (e.g. time, sounds and silence) and significant passages (e.g. the Song of the Lamb and other hymns), and highlight fresh aspects of its reception by both ancient and modern audiences. The final section considers the place of scripture and its interpretation in a selection of other early Jewish and early Christian apocalyptic writings (including 1 Enoch, Paul's Letters and the First Apocryphal Apocalypse of John).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSusan Docherty\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of New Testament and Early Judaism at Newman University Birmingham, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eSteve Smith\u003c\/b\u003e is Lecturer in New Testament studies at St Mellitus College, UK.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 272\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.57 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 20, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45881707462853,"sku":"9780567710444","price":71.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/N88Fg1CVgQ9780567710444_d17d72ee-affb-4121-b3fc-56e914f56776.webp?v=1771792634","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/the-scriptures-in-the-book-of-revelation-and-apocalyptic-literature-essays-in-honour-of-steve-moyise-paperback-2","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
