ISBN: 9783161534133 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The authors of this volume explore various instances of theo-political visions of authoritative texts in Second Temple and Rabbinic Judaism, and Early Christianity, and as such offer a broader perspective on the topos, "sacred texts in their context." Instead of a narrow exploration of the "political intent" of a singular text or group of texts, the volume contains the treatment of a wide range of texts, out of different corpora, with their discrete contexts. Their juxtaposition, as well as that of the respective scholarly approaches of the essays, offers fresh insights on the matter. Each of...

ISBN: 9789004263949 / Angielski / Twarda / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Nor should it be expected, given the diversity of reasons that citizens have to place or...
