This study identifies and explores texts of restoration in a wide
selection of Early Jewish Literature in order to assess the variety
of ways in which Jews envisioned Israel's future restoration.
Particular attention is given to the expression of restoration in
what is identified in the present study as the exilic model of
restoration. In this model, Israel's restoration is characterized
by the features of (a) a future re-gathering, (b) the fate of the
nations, and (c) the establishment of a new Temple. The present
work focuses primarily on the first two features. Through this
framework Jews in the Greco-Roman period could draw on Israel's
history and legacy, but re-appropriate 'exile and return' in new
and creative ways. Finally, the writing of Luke-Acts is
investigated for its ideas of restoration and its indebtedness to
Early Jewish traditions.
