Description for King and Temple in Chronicles
Hardback. "Chronicles" was written during the late post-exilic period when only the Temple in Jerusalem was a living institution and the monarchy was a memory from the distant past. This title examines "Chronicles" from the perspective of its relations with the post-exilic theological traditions. Num Pages: 176 pages. BIC Classification: HRCG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 236 x 160 x 15. Weight in Grams: 431.
Starting with an exegesis of the book of Chronicles as a single corpus, Jozef Tino sees the king-temple relationship as the leitmotiv of Chronicles. He shows that the Chronicler expresses a specific attitude to the kingship ideology and examines the text from the perspective of its relations with the post-exilic theological traditions when only the Temple in Jerusalem was a living institution but the monarchy was a mere memory from the distant past. Thereby this study offers a new perspective on the whole of Chronicles.
