Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the First Book of Chronicles, an ancient but enduring religious text, from a historical and theological perspective. It aligns this important biblical work with its era of composition during the Persian period, employing archaeological discoveries to provide a fuller picture of the time. The author analyses Chronicles as a response to the changing spiritual climate of the ancient world, framed by the Babylonian exile and return. Themes of restoration, renewal, and the re-establishment of a national and religious identity are explored. The book engages with Chronicles' distinctive emphases on priestly and cultic traditions, royal lineage, genealogies, and the genealogical structure of the text. It considers the book's understanding of history, how God interacts with humanity, covenantal faithfulness, the theme of exile and the return from exile, and the concept of a collective memory. Through this analysis, the book sheds light on the vital and enduring power of religious traditions in shaping historical narratives and fostering community identity. The author's insights enhance our comprehension of this ancient text and its relevance to understanding the broader history of the ancient world and the development of biblical literature.
