Abraham Among Golems: The Imago Dei Traditions in the Jewish Pseudepigrapha


Overview

Andrei A. Orlov argumentiert, dass die Apokalypse des Abraham und andere frühjüdische pseudepigraphische Werke versuchen, das Konzept von Kultstatuen polemisch umzugestalten, indem sie ihre Protagonisten als göttliche Repräsentationen in der Form des eschatologischen Gottesbildes imaginieren.
