Description

Explore the complex history of post-mortem existence with Resurrection, Hell and the Afterlife: Body and Soul in Antiquity, Judaism and Early Christianity. This scholarly work from the BibleWorld series examines how different ancient cultures viewed the relationship between the physical body and the soul after death. The book tracks the shift from early Greek reflections, which focused on the importance of the physical body, to the perspectives found in Hebrew Bible texts, Second Temple Judaism, and early Pauline Christianity, where the soul alone was often seen as the survivor. Readers will follow the evolution of these ideas into the later New Testament, where the afterlife of the physical body became a central theme. This text provides a detailed look at how these views shaped the early Church and became a major point of theological discussion. It is an essential resource for those studying the historical development of religious thought regarding death and immortality.
