Resurrection, Hell and the Afterlife
Body and Soul in Antiquity, Judaism and Early Christianity
Langbeschreibung
This book identifes trajectories of thought in antiquity on immortality and the afterlife in which both Judaism and Christianity changed from positing afterlife scenarios of the soul alone, to ones which insisted on-in the case of Christianity, to the point of being theological orthodoxy-the necessity of a post-mortem physical body.
