Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of the concept of Christ's second coming, a core tenet of Christian faith, from its roots in Jewish apocalyptic literature to its interpretation in the New Testament. Tracing the development of this belief within its historical and literary context, the author illuminates the influence of contemporary Jewish thought on the Gospels' portrayal of the second coming, examining how Jesus' teachings and actions shaped its meaning. The book delves into the significance of the second coming as a symbol of hope and liberation, and analyzes the eschatological imagery and language used to describe it. By comparing the New Testament texts with other Jewish writings of the period, the author reveals the dynamic interplay between Judaism and Christianity in the formation of this central Christian belief, shedding light on its origins and enduring importance within the Christian faith.
