This book contains a collection of twenty of David E. Aune's essays
on the subjects of apocalypticism, the Apocalypse of John, early
Christian prophecy and early Christian magic. Several essays on the
Apocalypse of John explore contextual relationships of the
Apocalypse to apocalyptic literature from Qumran, Palestinian
Jewish apocalyptic, Roman imperial court ceremonial, Greco-Roman
revelatory magic and the social setting of the book. Other essays
center on aspects of the content and interpretation of the
Apocalypse itself by investigating such issues as discipleship,
narrative Christology, genre, the problem of God and time, an
intertextual reading of the book, the form and function of the
proclamations to the seven churches (Rev 2-3), and interpretations
of Rev 5 and 17. Essays on early Christian prophecy deal with
charismatic exegesis in early Judaism and early Christianity, the
relationship between Christian prophecy and the messianic status of
Jesus, and the prophetic features found in the Odes of Solomon.
