4.9/5 (14868 ratings)

Description:Zechariah 1-8 is a deeply intertextual work which takes up formerly disparate streams of tradition - especially various elements of what it calls OCythe former prophetsOCO - and creatively combines these traditions, in applying them to a post-exilic context. This fact means that Zechariah 1-8 is situated in a dual context - the literary context of OCythe former prophetsOCO, and the historical context of the early post-exilic period.a This work seeks to understand Zechariah 1-8 in the light of its dual context.a When Zechariah 1-8 is read in this way, a number of otherwise perplexing passages are made clearer, and the message of the work as a whole is better understood. This book offers a critique of and refinement to the approaches of intertextuality/inner-biblical allusion/tradition. history in understanding the effect of OCytexts re-using textsOCO.a Against a recent trend which seeks to limit this phenomenon to OCyverbal repetitionOCO, it demonstrates that Zechariah 1-8 involves the use of a wide variety of literary devices (including thematic allusions, OCyungramaticalitiesOCO, and sustained allusions)to make connections with other texts.aa The kind of OCyintertextualOCO approach followed in this study demonstrates that intertextuality does not necessarily lead to radical indeterminacy (as claimed by some), and instead actually aids in the limiting the possible ranges of meaning. The manner in which Zechariah 1-8 invokes/re-activates/ re-applies the words of the OCyformer prophetsOCO raises important issues related to prophecy and fulfilment, history and eschatology, and the development of OCyapocalypticOCO, which are addressed in the course of this enquiry.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
