Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"The Bridge Between the Testaments" offers a comprehensive survey of the four centuries that separate the Old and New Testaments. Henry Kendall Booth explores this critical "Period of the Connections," a time often overlooked yet essential for understanding the origins of Christianity and the evolution of Judaism. The work examines the political, social, and religious transformations that occurred as the Jewish people navigated the influences of the Persian, Greek, and Roman empires.Booth provides a detailed analysis of the diverse literature produced during this era, including the Apocrypha, the Pseudepigrapha, and the emergence of various Jewish sects. By bridging the gap between the prophets and the apostles, the book sheds light on the historical context of the life of Jesus and the early church. "The Bridge Between the Testaments" is an invaluable resource for students of theology, history, and biblical studies, offering clarity on the complex developments that shaped the world into which the New Testament was born. This survey remains a significant contribution to the study of ancient religious history and the enduring legacy of the intertestamental period.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
