"Sigvartsen examines the immense interest in life after death, and speculation about the fates awaiting both the righteous and the wicked that proliferated in the Second Temple period. In this volume Sigvartsen systematically examines the apocalyptic writings within the apocrypha, and identifies the numerous afterlife and resurrection beliefs that these texts present. He analyses these beliefs, enabling readers to easily understand and compare the wide-ranging beliefs on afterlife that these texts hold. A careful reading of various resurrection passages reveals that most of the distinct views on life-after-death, regardless of their complexity, show little evidence of systematic development relational to one another, and are often supported by several key passages or shared motifs from texts that later became a part of the TaNaKh. In addition, Sigvartsen also highlights the factors that may also have influenced the development of so many different resurrection beliefs; including anthropology, the nature of the soul, the scope of the resurrection, the number and function of judgments, and the final destination of the righteous and the wicked. This study provides a better understanding of how the TaNaKh was read by different communities during this important period, and the role it played in the development of the resurrection belief - a central article of faith in both Christianity and Rabbinic Judaism. The volume is a companion to Sigvartsen's other volume on these themes in the Pseudepigrapha."--Provided by publisher.

Cette thèse, par une approche chronologique et historico-critique des textes sources du judaïsme, montre que l'eschatologie rabbinique s'organise autour de deux mondes : le monde de l'au-delà et celui de la résurrection. Elle insiste également sur l'influence de la culture grecque dans les représentations anthropologiques et cosmologiques qui caractérisent ces deux mondes.

Building on the form-critical assessment of the Lukan ascension story (LK 24:50-53; Acts 1:1-12) as a rapture story, and motivated by the consideration that the 'monotheistic principle' almost inevitably must have led to a reestimate of the meaning and function of rapture in comparison with heathen rapture stories (immortalisation and deification!), the present study seeks to investigate the Lukan ascension story in the light of the first-century Jewish rapture traditions (Enoch, Elijah, Moses, Baruch, Ezra, et cetera). The author argues that first-century Judaism provides a more plausible horizon of understanding for the ascension story than the Graeco-Roman rapture tradition, and that Luke develops his 'rapture christology' not as a reinterpretation of the primitive exaltation kerygma (G. Lohfink), but as a response to the eschatological question, id est the delay of the parousia, so as to secure the unity of salvation history.
