One of the most widely praised studies of Jewish apocalyptic
literature ever written, The Apocalyptic Imagination by John J.
Collins has served for over thirty years as a helpful, relevant,
comprehensive survey of the apocalyptic literary genre. Collins
begins by surveying the history of apocalyptic studies, then
proceeds to deal with individual apocalyptic texts - the early
Enochic literature, the book of Daniel, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and
others - and concludes with an examination of apocalypticism in
early Christianity. In this third edition Collins has updated
information throughout to account for the profusion of studies
germane to ancient Jewish apocalypticism since the second edition
(1998), including the three-volume Encyclopedia of Apocalypticism
and the now fully published Dead Sea Scrolls. The bibliography has
also been substantially revised and updated. The Apocalyptic
Imagination in this third edition will continue to serve students
and scholars of Jewish apocalypticism for many years to come. "The
book provides important information about an important yet little
known corpus of material. It is a valuable resource." - The Bible
