Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces how beliefs in an afterlife evolved within the religion of Israel. It starts by highlighting the absence of life-after-death concepts in earlier Israelite religion. As the author explains, this is because Yahwe, the national deity, was seen as a protector for the nation as a whole, not for individuals. However, following the rise of the doctrine of monotheism in the eighth century BC, Yahwe's authority was expanded to include all the earth. This led to the idea that Sheol, the realm of the dead, now came under his jurisdiction. Additionally, the rise of religious individualism in the late seventh century BC emphasized the moral responsibility of individuals, suggesting that righteousness and wickedness would be rewarded and punished accordingly. This led to questions about why the righteous sometimes suffered, and the wicked prospered, which became a key concern in psalms written after the fall of the Judean monarchy. By examining these and other Old Testament scriptures, this volume illuminates the progression of beliefs about life after death in ancient Israel.
