Taking a fresh and innovative angle of enquiry, Anna Angelini investigates continuities and changes in the representation of divine powers in Hellenistic Judaism, thereby revealing the role of the Greek translation of the Bible in shaping ancient demonology, angelology, and pneumatology. Combining philological and semantic analyses with a historical approach and anthropological insights, the author both develops a new method for analyzing religious categories within biblical traditions and sheds new light on the importance of the Septuagint for the history of ancient Judaism"-- NO Includes bibliographical references and index CN BS1199.M6 SN 9789004468467 K1 Bible : Old Testament : Greek : Versions : Septuagint K1 Bible : Old Testament : Criticism, interpretation, etc K1 Monsters K1 Monsters in the Bible K1 Jewish demonology K1 Sea monsters : Mediterranean Region
