Book Synopsis The Atoning Dyad: The Two Goats of Yom Kippur in the Apocalypse of Abraham by : Andrei Orlov
Download or read book The Atoning Dyad: The Two Goats of Yom Kippur in the Apocalypse of Abraham written by Andrei Orlov. This book was released on 2016-01-12. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study explores the eschatological reinterpretation of the Yom Kippur ritual found in the Apocalypse of Abraham where the protagonist of the story, the patriarch Abraham, takes on the role of a celestial goat for YHWH, while the text’s antagonist, the fallen angel Azazel, is envisioned as the demonic scapegoat. The study treats the application of the two goats typology to human and otherworldly figures in its full historical and interpretive complexity through a broad variety of Jewish and Christian sources, from the patriarchical narratives of the Hebrew Bible to early Christian materials in which Yom Kippur traditions were applied to Jesus’ story.

Book Synopsis Studies in Ancient Judaism and Early Christianity by : Pieter W. van der Horst
Download or read book Studies in Ancient Judaism and Early Christianity written by Pieter W. van der Horst. This book was released on 2014-03-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past 45 years Professor Pieter W. van der Horst contributed extensively to the study of ancient Judaism and early Christianity. The 24 papers in this volume, written since his early retirement in 2006, cover a wide range of topics, all of them concerning the religious world of Judaism and Christianity in the Hellenistic, Roman, and early Byzantine era. They reflect his research interests in Jewish epigraphy, Jewish interpretation of the Bible, Jewish prayer culture, the diaspora in Asia Minor, exegetical problems in the writings of Philo and Josephus, Samaritan history, texts from ancient Christianity which have received little attention (the poems of Cyrus of Panopolis, the Doctrina Jacobi nuper baptizati, the Letter of Mara bar Sarapion), and miscellanea such as the pagan myth of Jewish cannibalism, the meaning of the Greek expression ‘without God,’ the religious significance of sneezing in pagan antiquity, and the variety of stories about pious long-sleepers in the ancient world (pagan, Jewish, Christian).
