During my period of research, as I faced many frustrations, serious illness, and academic and financial difficulties, he has provided me with superfluous grace through many different people for the completion of this thesis. Without their help, fulfillment of this writing task would not have been possible. I wish to express my gratitude to them all, only some of whom I can name here. First of all, I greatly appreciate the guidance of my supervisor, Dr Joel Marcus. Without his patient direction, this study would not have reached its end. His perceptive cri­ tiques and comments provided a highly valuable challenge and a stone to sharpen ideas relevant to the thesis. I also thank Dr John Barclay, who cared for my work when Dr M arcus was on his study leaves. He provided very profitable comments to point out the way. I extend my thanks to Mr John Bradley for his thoughtful help and to Mrs Johnston, the secretary for postgraduates in the Department of Biblical Studies, for her kind consideration of my various requests. I wish to give my profound thanks to Professor Bok Y oon Shin, the president of the Hapdong Graduate School College ofTheology, who has given me considerable encouragement since I embarked on my research. Special thanks should be dedi­ cated to Professor Chi Mo Hong, my former teacher at the University of Chongshin, who has bestowed great help with love and concern. I also wish to send my grati­ tude to Dr Yung Ki Yu, who has provided helpful guidance not only at the outset but also at the final stage of my research. The most significant gratitude should go to Dr Ho Duck Kwon, my Christian brother, who has patiently supported me for years and years; the same gratitude goes to the churches which have sent financial support through him. My sincere gratitude also goes to Rev. Seo Kyu Yang, Dr Byung Soo Cho, Dr Sang Won Lee and Rev. Chang Yoon Oh, who as college­ fellows have showed brotherly friendship and generosity. Over the last years, my family and I have experienced the wonderful provision of God, who has lavishly supplied all things of which we have needed through his faithful servants. I wish to give my warmhearted gratitude to Rev. Myung Hyuk Kim and the Kang-Byun Church, Rev. Byung Shik Park and the Song-Pa-Jeil Church, Rev. Yung Sun Park and the Nam-Po Church (which provided the Lamp scholarship), Rev. Hong Joon Choe and the Pusan Sae-Joong-Ang Church, and Rev. Sun Kyu Park and the Jun-Won Church. I am so greatly indebted to Rev. John and Mrs Susan Harding, who have given great Christian love. Mr Harding's loving care as well as his godly inspired prayer, vm The Sign[ficance of Clothing Imagery in the Pauline Corpus and Mrs Harding's flowers of encouragement from her garden and her modesty, consideration and wisdom will be long cherished. In particular, Mrs Harding bestowed unsparing effort in order to correct my English, and this was a truly efficient and concrete aid. I also thank the members of the Shettleston Free Church for their prayer, kindness and concern. It was a great joy to see them at the church every Lord's day. They silently showed me what presbyterian saints' piety is. The memory of the fellowship with Mr Brian and Mrs Brenda Norton will be lasting. Their devotion to God has resulted in the edification of the Durham Evan­ gelical Presbyterian Church, where I have been privileged to participate in the eldership. Brenda's considerate love and Brian's discreet care and his preaching, which is full of an evangelical boldness and conviction, and his exemplary life which exerts a sacrificial effort for the supply of human needs, will constantly be remem­ bered as a ministerial example. Specifically, the prayer meeting at Mrs Freda Blunt's house in Pittington and the Bible meeting at the home ofMr David and Mrs Glenys Brewis, will be continuously left in my heart as a happy memory. The fellowship with Mrs Helen Cook and her children will also not be forgotten. I am also grateful to Professor Kyu Nam Jung, the president of the University of K wang Shin, who has been a significant source of encouragement whilst rounding off the thesis. Finally, I would like to record a personal note. Without my parents' endless love and prayer, it might not have been possible to proceed with the research. Their sacrificial love has caused me to exclaim, 'Parents are indeed wonderful!' I also thank my sisters and brothers, Yong Sook, Jung Sun, Yoon Soon, Sang Hoon and Choong Hoon, and their spouses. Above all comes my inestimable debt to my wife, Hee Sub, whose loyal support has been magnificent throughout the period of this study and to my two sons, Suh Joong and Young Joong, who have shared every difficulty with their parents and who are our special joy. When we arrive at the Land of Morning Calm (Korea), we will remember the sound of Suh Joong's Grade 5 violin playing and Young Joong's keyboard at the Eagle Hights flat in Sighthill. I dedicate this thesis to my parents, my wife and my two sons, and thereby give all glory to God. ABBREVIATIONS I.

    4 The Tree of Knowledge as the Veil of the Sanctuary Jeffrey M. Bradshaw ne thing that has always perplexed readers of OGenesis is the location of the two special trees within the Garden of Eden. Although scripture initially applies the phrase “in the midst” only to the tree of life (Genesis 2:9), the tree of knowledge is later said by Eve to be located there too (see Genesis 3:3).1 In the context of these verses, the Hebrew phrase corresponding to “in the midst” literally means “in the center.”2 How can both trees be in the center? Elaborate explanations have been attempted to de- scribe how both the tree of life and the tree of knowledge could share the center of the Garden of Eden.3 For exam- Fig. 1.

  • The Fall of Satan in the Thought of St. Ephrem and John Milton
    Hugoye: Journal of Syriac Studies, Vol. 3.1, 3–27 © 2000 [2010] by Beth Mardutho: The Syriac Institute and Gorgias Press THE FALL OF SATAN IN THE THOUGHT OF ST. EPHREM AND JOHN MILTON GARY A. ANDERSON HARVARD DIVINITY SCHOOL CAMBRIDGE, MA USA ABSTRACT In the Life of Adam and Eve, Satan “the first-born” refused to venerate Adam, the “latter-born.” Later writers had difficulty with the tale because it granted Adam honors that were proper to Christ (Philippians 2:10, “at the name of Jesus, every knee should bend.”) The tale of Satan’s fall was then altered to reflect this Christological sensibility. Milton created a story of Christ’s elevation prior to the creation of man. Ephrem, on the other hand, moved the story to Holy Saturday. In Hades, Death acknowledged Christ as the true first- born whereas Satan rejected any such acclamation. [1] For some time I have pondered the problem of Satan’s fall in early Jewish and Christian sources. My point of origin has been the justly famous account found in the Life of Adam and Eve (hereafter: Life).1 1 See G. Anderson, “The Exaltation of Adam and the Fall of Satan,” Journal of Jewish Thought and Philosophy, 6 (1997): 105–34. 3 4 Gary A. Anderson I say justly famous because the Life itself existed in six versions- Greek, Latin, Armenian, Georgian, Slavonic, and Coptic (now extant only in fragments)-yet the tradition that the Life drew on is present in numerous other documents from Late Antiquity.2 And one should mention its surprising prominence in Islam-the story was told and retold some seven times in the Koran and was subsequently subject to further elaboration among Muslim exegetes and storytellers.3 My purpose in this essay is to carry forward work I have already done on this text to the figures of St.

  • Adam and Seth in Arabic Medieval Literature: The
    ARAM, 22 (2010) 509-547. doi: 10.2143/ARAM.22.0.2131052 ADAM AND SETH IN ARABIC MEDIEVAL LITERATURE: THE MANDAEAN CONNECTIONS IN AL-MUBASHSHIR IBN FATIK’S CHOICEST MAXIMS (11TH C.) AND SHAMS AL-DIN AL-SHAHRAZURI AL-ISHRAQI’S HISTORY OF THE PHILOSOPHERS (13TH C.)1 Dr. EMILY COTTRELL (Leiden University) Abstract In the middle of the thirteenth century, Shams al-Din al-Shahrazuri al-Ishraqi (d. between 1287 and 1304) wrote an Arabic history of philosophy entitled Nuzhat al-Arwah wa Raw∂at al-AfraÌ. Using some older materials (mainly Ibn Nadim; the ∑iwan al-Ìikma, and al-Mubashshir ibn Fatik), he considers the ‘Modern philosophers’ (ninth-thirteenth c.) to be the heirs of the Ancients, and collects for his demonstration the stories of the ancient sages and scientists, from Adam to Proclus as well as the biographical and bibliographical details of some ninety modern philosophers. Two interesting chapters on Adam and Seth have not been studied until this day, though they give some rare – if cursory – historical information on the Mandaeans, as was available to al-Shahrazuri al-Ishraqi in the thirteenth century. We will discuss the peculiar historiography adopted by Shahrazuri, and show the complexity of a source he used, namely al-Mubashshir ibn Fatik’s chapter on Seth, which betray genuine Mandaean elements. The Near and Middle East were the cradle of a number of legends in which Adam and Seth figure. They are presented as forefathers, prophets, spiritual beings or hypostases emanating from higher beings or created by their will. In this world of multi-millenary literacy, the transmission of texts often defied any geographical boundaries.

  • A Study on the Design and Composition of Victorian Women's Mantle
    Journal of Fashion Business Vol. 14, No. 6, pp.188~203(2010) A Study on the Design and Composition of Victorian Women’s Mantle * Lee Sangrye ‧ Kim Hyejeong Professor, Dept. of Fashion Design, TongMyong University * Associate Professor, Dept. of Clothing Industry, Hankyong National University Abstract This study purposed to identify the design and composition characteristics of mantle through a historical review of its change and development focusing on women’s dress. This analysis was particularly focused on the Victorian age because the variety of mantle designs introduced and popularized was wider than ever since ancient times to the present. For this study, we collected historical literature on mantle from ancient times to the 19 th century and made comparative analysis of design and composition, and for the Victorian age we investigated also actual items from the period. During the early Victorian age when the crinoline style was popular, mantle was of A‐ line silhouette spreading downward from the shoulders and of around knee length. In the mid Victorian age from 1870 to 1889 when the bustle style was popular, the style of mantle was changed to be three‐ dimensional, exaggerating the rear side of the bustle skirt. In addition, with increase in women’s suburban activities, walking costume became popular and mantle reached its climax. With the diversification of design and composition in this period, the name of mantle became more specific and as a result, mantle, mantelet, dolman, paletot, etc. were used. The styles popular were: it looked like half-jacket and half-cape. Ornaments such as tassels, fur, braids, rosettes, tufts and fringe were attached to create luxurious effects.

  • The Nakedness and the Clothing of Adam and Eve Jeffrey M
    The Nakedness and the Clothing of Adam and Eve Jeffrey M. Bradshaw Western art typically portrays Adam and Eve as naked in the Garden of Eden, and dressed in “coats of skin” after the Fall. However, the Eastern Orthodox tradition depicts the sequence of their change of clothing in reverse manner. How can that be? The Eastern Church remembers the accounts that portray Adam as a King and Priest in Eden, so naturally he is shown there in his regal robes.1 Moreover, Orthodox readers interpret the “skins” that the couple wore after their expulsion from the Garden as being their own now-fully-human flesh. Anderson interprets this symbolism to mean that “Adam has exchanged an angelic constitution for a mortal one”2—in other words, they have lost their terrestrial glory and are now in a telestial state. The top panel of the figure above shows God seated in the heavenly council surrounded by angels and the four beasts of the book of Revelation. The second panel depicts, from left to right: Adam and Eve clothed in heavenly robes following their creation; then stripped of their glorious garments and “clothed” only in mortal skin after eating the forbidden fruit; and finally both clad in fig leaf aprons as Eve converses with God. The third panel shows Adam conversing with God, the couple’s expulsion from the walled Garden through a door showing images of cherubim, and their subsequent hardship in the fallen world. Orthodox tradition generally leaves Adam and Eve in their aprons after the Fall and expulsion, seeing them as already having received their “coats of skin” at the time they were clothed in mortal flesh.

  • The Redemption Of
    The Redemption of Eve Jolene Edmunds Rockwood(1) I am Eve, the wife of noble Adam; it was I who violated Jesus in the past; it was I who robbed my children of heaven; it is I by right who should have been crucified. I had heaven at my command; evil the bad choice that shamed me; evil the punishment for my crime that has aged me; alas, my hand is not pure. It was I who plucked the apple; it went past the narrow of my gullet; as long as they live in daylight women will not cease from folly on account of that. There would be no ice in any place; there would be no bright windy winter; there would be no hell, there would be no grief, there would be no terror but for me. Anonymous, Old Irish1(2) For over two thousand years, since the first commentary on Genesis was presented, Eve has been blamed for woes ranging from the origin of sin to the presumed inferiority of the female sex. Because of Eve, women have been cursed, their subordination to man has been justified, and their feminine weaknesses have been stereotyped. Much of this tradition has been so engrained in our Judeo-Christian culture that we are often unaware of its presence or its origin. Yet if it were possible to eradicate all our culturally induced prejudices about Eve and examine the original Hebrew text of the whole Eden account, we would find a story that actually says very little of what it has throughout the centuries been credited with saying.

  • Practical Literacy and Christian Identity Are Two Sides of the Same Coin When Dealing with Late Viking Age Rune Stones
    “Dead in White Clothes”: Modes of Christian Expression on Viking Age Rune Stones in Present-Day Sweden By Henrik Williams 2009 (Submitted version - the early author's version that has been submitted to the journal/publisher). Published as: Williams, Henrik: “Dead in White Clothes”: Modes of Christian Expression on Viking Age Rune Stones in Present-Day Sweden. I: Epigraphic Literacy and Christian Identity: Modes of Written Discourse in the Newly Christian European North. Ed. by Kristel Zilmer & Judith Jesch. (Utrecht Studies in Medieval Literacy 4.) Turnhout 2012. Pp. 137‒152. Practical literacy and Christian identity are two sides of the same coin when dealing with late Viking age rune stones. Reading the inscriptions on these monuments are by necessity not a straight-forward process for us today. The printed word we are familiar with is different in so many ways when compared to the usually very short and sometimes enigmatic messages we encounter in the form of runic carvings on rocks and cliffs throughout Scandinavia. The difficulties which we expect and take into account are not, however, primarily the main obstacles to our complete understanding of the rune stone texts. In one respect, these problems are superficial, dealing with formal restrictions of the media and the writing system. As is well known, the Viking age runic characters only numbered 16 (with the addition of three optional variants. Since the language(s) contained quite a few speech signs more than that, most runes could be use with more than one value and it is up to the reader to determine exactly which.
