Descrizione
Riepilogo:Several Jewish texts provide visions of the throne of Israels God. These visions resemble and develop accounts found in the prophetic literature of the Hebrew Bible (Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel). Scholars have offered a variety of explanations for the possible relationships and literary dependence among these throne visions. This note considers the throne vision in the Aramaic text, the Book of Giants (4Q530). It compares the throne vision in the Book of Giants with similar visions in Dan 7, the Book of Watchers, and the Animal Apocalypse. The results of the comparative analysis demonstrates a close correspondence between the throne visions in Dan 7, the Book of Giants, and the Animal Apocalypse. This correspondence suggests the possibility of a common tradition written in Aramaic.
