Bøger i Understanding the Bible & Its World S. serien

Setting Jesus in a radical apocalyptic context, this volume draws attention to the eschatological significance of the journey to Jerusalem and Jesus' arrival there.

This series is designed with the needs of introductory level students in mind. It should also appeal to general readers who want to be better informed about the latest advances in our understanding of the Bible and of the intellectual, political and religious world in which it was formed.

Aimed at the general reader as well as students, undergraduates and those on diocesan ministry courses, this book explains the main ideas of the Old Testament in their own context. The author also discusses the significance of creation and the Creator, a subject of particular contemporary interest.
