  • Heavenly Priesthood in the Apocalypse of Abraham
    HEAVENLY PRIESTHOOD IN THE APOCALYPSE OF ABRAHAM The Apocalypse of Abraham is a vital source for understanding both Jewish apocalypticism and mysticism. Written anonymously soon after the destruction of the Second Jerusalem Temple, the text envisions heaven as the true place of worship and depicts Abraham as an initiate of the celestial priesthood. Andrei A. Orlov focuses on the central rite of the Abraham story – the scapegoat ritual that receives a striking eschatological reinterpretation in the text. He demonstrates that the development of the sacerdotal traditions in the Apocalypse of Abraham, along with a cluster of Jewish mystical motifs, represents an important transition from Jewish apocalypticism to the symbols of early Jewish mysticism. In this way, Orlov offers unique insight into the complex world of the Jewish sacerdotal debates in the early centuries of the Common Era. The book will be of interest to scholars of early Judaism and Christianity, Old Testament studies, and Jewish mysticism and magic. ANDREI A. ORLOV is Professor of Judaism and Christianity in Antiquity at Marquette University. His recent publications include Divine Manifestations in the Slavonic Pseudepigrapha (2009), Selected Studies in the Slavonic Pseudepigrapha (2009), Concealed Writings: Jewish Mysticism in the Slavonic Pseudepigrapha (2011), and Dark Mirrors: Azazel and Satanael in Early Jewish Demonology (2011).

  • Theology of Supernatural
    religions Article Theology of Supernatural Pavel Nosachev School of Philosophy and Cultural Studies, HSE University, 101000 Moscow, Russia; [email protected] Received: 15 October 2020; Accepted: 1 December 2020; Published: 4 December 2020 Abstract: The main research issues of the article are the determination of the genesis of theology created in Supernatural and the understanding of ways in which this show transforms a traditional Christian theological narrative. The methodological framework of the article, on the one hand, is the theory of the occulture (C. Partridge), and on the other, the narrative theory proposed in U. Eco’s semiotic model. C. Partridge successfully described modern religious popular culture as a coexistence of abstract Eastern good (the idea of the transcendent Absolute, self-spirituality) and Western personified evil. The ideal confirmation of this thesis is Supernatural, since it was the bricolage game with images of Christian evil that became the cornerstone of its popularity. In the 15 seasons of its existence, Supernatural, conceived as a story of two evil-hunting brothers wrapped in a collection of urban legends, has turned into a global panorama of world demonology while touching on the nature of evil, the world order, theodicy, the image of God, etc. In fact, this show creates a new demonology, angelology, and eschatology. The article states that the narrative topics of Supernatural are based on two themes, i.e., the theology of the spiritual war of the third wave of charismatic Protestantism and the occult outlooks derived from Emmanuel Swedenborg’s system. The main topic of this article is the role of monotheistic mythology in Supernatural.

The New Humanity 63 1 Intro to Spiritual Beings EPISODE 1 Many modern readers of the Bible think of God and humans as the main characters of the biblical story and spiritual beings as interesting (or weird!) background characters. But this is not how the biblical authors thought about spiritual beings. For them, spiritual beings played a significant role in their con- ception of the world and of humanity’s role within it. In this video series, and in these study notes, we’re going to take a deeper dive into the Bible’s portrayal of the spiritual realm and its inhabitants. Be pre- pared for some surprises! SECTION 1.1 Understanding spiritual beings in the Bible requires us to reorient ourselves to how the biblical authors saw the world, and to do that, we need to reconsider the story of Genesis chapter 1. a.

Higher ranks may be asserted to have greater power or authority over lower ranks, and with different ranks having differences in appearance, such as varying numbers of wings or faces. Abrahamic faiths The Assumption of the Virgin by Francesco Botticini at the National Gallery The Jewish angelic hierarchy is established London, shows three hierarchies and nine orders of angels, each with different in the Hebrew Bible, Talmud, Rabbinic characteristics. literature, and traditional Jewish liturgy. They are categorized in different hierarchies proposed by various theologians. For example, Maimonides, in his Mishneh Torah or Yad ha-Chazakah: Yesodei ha-Torah, counts ten ranks of angels. The most influential Christian angelic hierarchy was that put forward by Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite in the 4th or 5th century in his book De Coelesti Hierarchia (On the Celestial Hierarchy).

  • What Do We Know About Angels?
    What do we know about angels? For Catholics, angels are more than Christmas tree toppers. Belief in the supernatural appearances of heavenly figures is part of the fabric of our faith. But how much do we know about angels? Depictions of angels as winged creatures are ubiquitous in art, and belief in them is found across the Abrahamic religious traditions. The Christian conception of angels derives from the Jewish characterization as pure spirit, created beings that are messengers of God (from Greek angelos “messenger”) and were created before humanity was. Some have feast days, such as the three named archangels — Michael, Gabriel and Raphael — on Sept. 29; the feast of the guardian angels is celebrated Oct. 2. Churches, prayers and devotions are dedicated to these celestial beings. So what does the Church teach about angels? Where do angels appear in Scripture? Shutterstock Angels appear throughout the Bible in both dreams and bodily form: The Book of Revelation recounts a vision of seven angels with trumpets standing before God (cf. Rv 8:1-2). In the Old Testament, Jacob dreams of a ladder with angels ascending and descending (Gn 28:10-12). Angels are sent to exhibit God’s strength: An angel remained guarding the tree of life after Adam and Eve were cast out of the garden (Gn 3:20-24). King David and the Israelites were to be punished by God by an angel, but with repentance and sacrifice of the king, the angel relented in the plan to destroy Jerusalem (2 Sm 24). Angels are often sent for protection: In the Book of Exodus, Moses receives an angel sent by God to guard him and lead him into the Promised Land (3:2, 23:20-22).

  • Angels Are Always Under the Command of Christ
    A. The Commander-in-Chief. 1. The angel of the Lord is Jesus Christ. This is a theophany of Jesus Christ. The elect angels are always under the command of Christ. This implies that the angelic salvation is related to Christ, just as ours is. 2. There are four manifestations of our Lord: a. A Theophany is a manifestation before the First Advent. b. The incarnation is an appearance in Hypostatic Union. c. A Christophany are post-resurrection appearances in Hypostatic Union. d. The Second Advent is His return in Hypostatic Union. 3. The angel of the Lord is identified as the Lord or Jehovah in Gen 16:7-13, 22:11-18, 31:11-13, 48:15-16; Ex 3:1 cf Acts 7:30-35; Ex 13:21, 14:19; Jud 6:11-23, 13:9-10. B. The Seraphim Heralds. 1. Seraph is an order of rank created as a reward for angels who achieved maximum glorification of Christ. The seraph is distinguished from all other angels as the highest ranking angel because of his six wings, Isa 6:2. Angels do not have wings except for seraphs and cherubs. Wings are an insignia of rank. 2. The pair of wings covering the face of the seraph is analogous to his integrity and humility. In the angelic dispute, these angels learned more doctrine and achieved a higher rank than anyone else. Their six wings indicate that Bible doctrine was more important to them than anything else. a. Four of these seraphs are the heralds of Rev 4 and following.

  • Mysticism Historicized
    CHAPTER 20 Mysticism Historicized: Historical Figures and Movements Brian Ogren Anna Smith Fine Assistant Professor of Judaic Studies, Department of Religion Rice University, Houston, TX The word mysticism derives from the Greek verb muo, “to hide” or “to close.” The adjectival form mystikos, which means “hidden” or “clandestine,” was originally used in relation to Greek mystery religions, which involved specific initiation rituals (Bouyer 1981, 43). These religions were not open, and initiates who joined had to be formally admitted through a process of secret rites. The term then changed meaning, and from the early first-century Jewish philosophy of Philo of Alexandria (who was Hellenistic, or culturally Greek) and also early Christian texts, mystikos came to represent “mysterious” interpretations of scriptures. These were mainly allegorical understandings “hidden” just beneath the surface: that is, interpreters understood the stories of the Bible to be figurative representations of abstract philosophical concepts. Both these definitions—of secret groups with initiation rituals and of mysterious scriptural interpretations—have persisted throughout history and are still important today. But the term has also come to denote a certain experience and/or sublime cognition of that which is beyond mundane, everyday life. Some scholars have defined mysticism as “the direct and immediate experience of ultimate reality” (DeConick 2010, 300) or as “direct and intimate consciousness of the Divine Presence” (Scholem [1961] 1995, 4; McGinn 2002, xiii). Some have seen this direct experience or consciousness as purely subjective and internal, never fully open or accessible to the outside observer (James [1902] 2002), whereas others have seen it as a social practice in which those who have left the sensory world return, eager to tell others of their visions and experiences (Certeau 1992).
