DOWNLOAD EBOOKOf the many proposals for the conceptual background of the priestly Christology of the Epistle to the Hebrews, this book argues that the presentations of the messianic priest and Melchizedek in the Qumran texts provide the closest parallels to Hebrews’ thought.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExiste un orden de seres celestiales muy distintos de los seres humanos. Estos seres a pesar de ser dotados de muchos poderes sobrenaturales son también muy distintos a la Deidad. El estudio de estos seres llamados ángeles es precisamente a lo que ?llamamos: «angelología». Los ángeles ejecutan las órdenes de Dios. Son mensajeros del Creador.También hay ángeles caídos, los cuales formaron parte de una rebelión cósmica -bajo el mando de Satanás «Lucero, hijo de la mañana»- que comenzó en los cielos y fueron echados a tierra, y otros a prisiones, lo cual estudiaremos en el transcurso de este tomo.Los ángeles también interfieren en los asuntos humanos, aún en cuestiones de reinos y naciones, guerra y política, y algunos son asignados para ministrar a los santos, estos son «espíritus ministradores, enviados para servicio a favor de los que serán herederos de la salvación».Por otro lado, ángeles caídos forman parte de las «huestes espirituales de maldad en las regiones celestes», y el trabajo de estos ha sido interrumpir el progreso de la obra de Dios en la tierra, aunque sabemos que Dios es poderoso y soberano permitiendo lo que Él quiere permitir conforme a los designios de Su voluntad como vemos en la historia de Job.Entonces, comencemos este emocionante recorrido para entender lo que los textos sagrados nos dicen sobre estas fascinantes criaturas y su relación con la creación, la historia, los ministerios, los acontecimientos escatológicos y la eternidad.En este libro, el lector / estudiante tendrá espacio para ejercicios, notas, textos claves y un cuestionario para repasar lo aprendido al final de cada capítulo. Esto hace que este material pueda ser usado en la lectura privada individual o en el aula de clases del instituto bíblico, seminario, estudios de grupos, etc...

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAngels have fascinated people for millennia because they point to an invisible dimension that parallels our own. This book examines the different ways that angels have been portrayed at certain key points in biblical and theological history. By tracing patterns in the appearance of higher-order beings from their ancient Near Eastern origins, the Hebrew Scriptures, the writings of Pseudo-Dionysius, Thomas Aquinas, Karl Barth, and even modern New Age writers, Angelology demonstrates that angels allow various authors to emphasise divine transcendence, immanence, and creativity. Identifying the theological purpose underlying the depiction of angels at certain key points in the history of their use raises new questions about how angels are to be understood by people today.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis study demonstrates that angel and angel-related traditions, especially those growing from the so-called "Angel of the Lord" in the Hebrew Bible, had a significant impact on the origins and early development of Christology to the point that an Angelomorphic Christology is discernable in several first century texts. Significant effort is given to tracing the antecedents of this Christology in the angels and divine hypostases of the Hebrew Bible and Second Temple Jewish literature. The primary content of this volume is the presentation of pre-150 CE textual evidence of Angelomorphic Christology. This religio-historical study does not spawn a new Christology among the many scholarly "Christologies" already extant. Instead, it shows the interrelationship of various Christological trajectories and their adaptation from Jewish angelomorphic traditions.
