 English | 2021 | ISBN: 1912676710 | 265 pages | True PDF | 32.04 MB The emancipation of Jews during the French Revolution and Napoleon's destruction of European ghettos led to concerns over the loyalty of Anglo-Jewry to the Crown. The elite of the Jewish community adopted the traditional approach of Jews in the diaspora stressing the community's loyalty and avoiding the public expression of any view which might be controversial. This outlook reflected both Jewish religious injunctions and a desire for self-preservation. In contrast, a small number of Jews broke with this approach and published remarkably contentious views on a range of political and religious subjects. Drawing on a rich range of sources, the book examines the extent of anti-Jewish sentiment in England. It breaks new ground by using government archives to demonstrate that these negative representations only had a very limited impact on the implementation of the Alien Act of 1793. This book understands the fears of the communal elite but also argues that the controversial views of some Jewish dissidents were more widely held than previously considered. As a study of a minority under pressure, the position of Anglo-Jewry in the period has wider relevance in today's multicultural world. [center]  The Jewish Apocalyptic Tradition and the Shaping of the New Testament Thought By Benjamin E. Reynolds (Author, Editor), Loren T. Stuckenbruck (Editor) 2017 | 395 Pages | ISBN: 1451492669 | PDF | 6 MB The contemporary study of Jewish apocalypticism today recognizes the wealth and diversity of ancient traditions concerned with the "unveiling" of heavenly mattersunderstood to involve revealed wisdom, the revealed resolution of time, and revealed cosmologyin marked contrast to an earlier focus on eschatology as such. The shift in focus has had a more direct impact on the study of ancient "pseudepigraphic" literature, however, than in New Testament studies, where the narrower focus on eschatological expectation remains dominant. In this Companion, an international team of scholars draws out the implications of the newest scholarship for the variety of New Testament writings. Each entry presses the boundaries of current discussion regarding the nature of apocalypticism in application to a particular New Testament author. The cumulative effect is to reveal, as never before, early Christianity, its Christology, cosmology, and eschatology, as expressions of tendencies in Second Temple Judaism.
