Présentation de l'éditeur
Hebrew prophet has received a new interpretation at the hands of mod ern scholarship. Prior to its advent he was classified as belonging to an alto gether unique species. He was neither of earth, nor of heaven, but had more or less tangible connections with both. He was a thing to be admired yea, won dered at, but not to be understood. His mental and spiritual processes defied all analysis. He was an unfathomable mys tery. To-day the prophet is, in one sense, as much a mystery as ever; and he will remain so. Genius always eludes definition and exposition; and religious genius is no exception to the rule. But we have come to see that, after all, the prophet was a man among men.

impression à la demandeVendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book illuminates the critical role of prophecy within the construct of ancient Semitic society and religion. The author posits that while prophecy is often seen as an exclusive phenomenon of ancient Israel, it was in fact shared by nearly all Semitic peoples as a spiritual medium bridging the gap between humans and their deities. However, having established this common foundation, the author goes on to demonstrate the exceptional nature of Hebrew prophecy within this shared milieu, with its unique rejection of ecstatic trance and the supernatural, and its instead unparalleled ethical and spiritual depth. This rigorous analysis and comparison of Semitic prophecy schools illuminates the contextual backdrop against which the extraordinary contributions of Hebrew prophecy become clear, underscoring the profound significance of its insights for the history of religion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330545416_0
