Jesus And The Angels: Angelology And The Christology Of The Apocalypse Of John (society For New Testament Studies Monograph Series)

This book examines the influence of angelology on the Christology of the Apocalypse of John. In the Apocalypse, Jesus appears in glorious form reminiscent of angels in Jewish and Christian literature in the period between 200 BCE and 200 CE. Dr Carrell asks what significance this has for the Christology of the Apocalypse. In general the study of the christology of the Apocalypse in this century has trodden well-worn paths along thematic valleys and over titled mountains largely similar to the study of christology elsewhere in the New Testament. Peter R. Carrell. Includes Bibliographical References (p. 231-254) And Indexes.
