Summary: | The focus of this volume of collected papers is the appropriate reading lens for interpretation of embodiment language, with regard to God and to human beings, in the Hebrew Bible. The papers explore the subject of the complex anthropomorphisms in the biblical books, with relation to God’s biblical bodies, human biblical bodies, divine bodies, human bodies, and today’s reader. This approach is viewed as innovative and separate from much previous biblical scholarship which centred on spiritual interpretations of bodies, especially the metaphysical interpretation of the divine body., In Section A, Amy Willis examines apocalyptic embodiment, focusing on the divine body in Daniel 7–8, 10–12. |
