The mythical story of fallen angels preserved in 1 Enoch and
related literature was profoundly influential during the Second
Temple period. In this volume renowned scholar Loren Stuckenbruck
explores aspects of that influence and demonstrates how the myth
was reused and adapted to address new religious and cultural
contexts. Stuckenbruck considers a variety of themes, including
demonology, giants, exorcism, petitionary prayer, the birth and
activity of Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the conversion of Gentiles,
"apocalyptic" and the understanding of time, and more. He also
offers a theological framework for the myth of fallen angels
through which to reconsider several New Testament texts-the
Synoptic Gospels, the Gospel of John, Acts, Paul's letters, and the
book of Revelation.
