Some issues in apocalyptic in the exegetical literature of the last ten years

Abstract

In 1989 there was a follow-up meeting on the 1979 Uppsala Colloquium on apo­ calypticism. The results were published in a small volume edited by Collins and Charlesworth in 1991. Since then interest in apocalyptic has continued and this sur­ vey intends to give an overview· of the literature on this issue since that time. The article focuses particularly on the following aspects: apocalyptic: literary genre or theological concept; the apocalyptic genre; eschatological or cosmological in con­ tent; apocalyptic movements; social context and function; apocalypses and mysticism; the sources of Jewish apocalyptic; Jesus, a and apocalyptic traditions; apocalyptic views and wisdom; apocalyptic traditions and the Book of Revelation; apocalyptic and the rest of the New Testament; apocalyptic literature and biblical interpretation.
