Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book probes the potential of two ancient writers to have spoken of the coming of the Messiah. Exploring the literary parallels between Virgil and Isaiah, it places their writings within a historical context to determine how far Virgil may have been a prophet of Christ. Covering b…oth human and divine interpretations of the Child in Virgil's fourth Eclogue, the book argues that the expected Child was the divine manifestation of Augustus. By comparing this with Isaiah's prophecy of the Prince of the Four Names, it reveals a deep spiritual affinity between the two authors. Despite their being centuries apart, it suggests Isaiah looked for an ideal yet human King, while Virgil's Messiah was divine or semi-divine. The book concludes that Virgil and Isaiah's ideas transcended their times, demonstrating the enduring importance of their insights into a Kingdom of God that is within both ourselves and the world around us.
