Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The study explores the significance of eschatological meals and scenes of nutritional abundance in the New Testament, challenging the notion that these images originate solely from Isaiah. It highlights their roots in Ancient Near Eastern and Mediterranean thought, emphasizing their role in utopian ideals. By analyzing individual texts within their socio-historical contexts, the author differentiates various traditions and their functions. The work also connects these meals to contemporary "symposiastic ideology," enhancing our understanding of their literary and theological implications in the Gospels and the Apocalypse of John.
