Description:History & Eschatology charts the shift away from an ancient cyclical interpretation of history to teleological & eschatological alternatives. Bultmann explains the fundamental shift in historical understanding introduced in the Judeo-Christian tradition & explains why the disappointment faced by the early church in Christ’s belated return prompted a reinterpretation of history. This brought about a teleological understanding of history which was adopted by later Renaissance & secular traditions. Even Marxism continued to hold onto this teleological approach. Bultmann, drawing on Paul & John, challenges this purely teleological approach & recentres a Christian understanding of history & eschatology in the historical event of Christ which is both timeless & immediately present.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
