Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the development of the knowledge of God within the Old Testament. The author begins by presenting a comparative overview of the religious developments within Greece and Israel. The contrast between the two civilizations is stark: Greece began with man, working up to… the conclusion that God is hard to find and impossible to explain, while Israel began with God and ended in the proud assurance that their God is their guide forever. Despite these fundamental differences, the book highlights some intriguing similarities in their earlier political development. Both Greece and Israel began as scattered agricultural populations under local rulers, who were later replaced by kings. This political development mirrored the religious evolution seen in both societies and the tensions between local and centralized power. The author argues that the knowledge of God in Israel was a moral power of exceptional strength and delves into the historical and literary context of the prophetic tradition to determine its origins. By studying the writings of the prophets, the book reveals the gradual development of a clear ethical monotheism, which became a central pillar of Judaism and Christianity. The author's careful analysis and insightful comparisons make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion, the development of the knowledge of God, and the interplay between politics and religion in the ancient world.
