Excerpt from Religious Development Between the Old and the New Testaments
From the times of the primitive Church down to the last century it was the generally accepted view, except in the case of a few isolated scholars, that the Old Testament was closed in the fifth century B.C., and that in the interval between the fifth century and the New Testament no divine voice had broken the silence, no divine message been sent to the faithful remnant of Israel, and no development had been achieved by the righteous seekers after God in Palestine. All these positions have now been abandoned by scholars and by the vast body of educated people.

Excerpt from Religious Development Between the Old and the New Testaments
This literature was written probably for the most part in Galilee, the home Of the religious seer and mystic. Not only was the develop ment of a religious but also of an ethical character. In both these respects the way was prepared by this literature for the advent Of Christianity, while a study Of the New Testament makes it clear that its writers had been brought up in the atmosphere created by these books and were themselves directly acquainted with many of them.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the rich and often overlooked period of religious development in Judaism between the Old and New Testaments. It challenges the common misconception that this era was a time of silence and stagnation, instead arguing that it was a period of profound spiritual growth and transformation. The author examines the rise of apocalyptic literature, a distinct form of Jewish writing characterized by visions and pronouncements about the end times, and its significant impact on shaping the religious landscape of the time. The book explores the key concepts and themes that emerged during this period, including the doctrine of a blessed future life, the role of the Messiah, and the complex relationship between the Law and individual faith. It sheds light on how these ideas evolved in response to the challenges and anxieties faced by Jews in a turbulent world, particularly during the aftermath of the Babylonian exile. By tracing the origins and development of these central themes, the author provides invaluable insights into the intellectual and spiritual foundations of early Christianity, demonstrating how the New Testament was shaped by the religious ideas that flourished in the centuries leading up to the life of Jesus.
