The Seven Messages of Revelation and Vassal Treaties : Literary Genre, Structure, and Function, Paperback / softback Book

The Seven Messages of Revelation and Vassal Treaties : Literary Genre, Structure, and Function Paperback / softback

Part of the Gorgias Biblical Studies series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book argues that the genre of the seven messages in Revelation 2-3 is a hybrid prophetic oracle.

This oracle is influenced by the Old Testament covenantal elements functioning as a set of lawsuit exhortations.

Graves defends this by demonstrating the influence of the Ancient Near Eastern vassal treaty structure in the seven messages.

Written in a readable format this work is both an excellent introduction to the book of Revelation as well as a fitting work for the apocalyptic specialist.
