Abstract

In Nuptial Symbolism in Second Temple Writings, the New Testament and Rabbinic Literature , André Villeneuve examines the ancient Jewish concept of the covenant between God and Israel, portrayed as a marriage dynamically moving through salvation history. This nuptial covenant was established in Eden but damaged by sin; it was restored at the Sinai theophany, perpetuated in the Temple liturgy, and expected to reach its final consummation at the end of days. The authors of the New Testament adopted the same key moments of salvation history to describe the spousal relationship between Christ and the Church. In their typological treatment of these motifs, they established an exegetical framework that would anticipate the four senses of Scripture later adopted by patristic and medieval commentators.

Abstract

"In "And They Shall Be One Flesh: On the Language of Mystical Union in Judaism", Adam Afterman offers for the first time an extensive study of mystical union and embodiment in Judaism. Afterman argues that Philo was the first to articulate the notion of unio mystica in Judaism and in monotheism and is the source of the henōsis mysticism in the later Neoplatonic tradition. The study provides a detailed analysis of the Jewish medieval trends that developed different forms of mystical union and mystical embodiment through the Holy Spirit. The book argues that the development of unitive mysticism in Judaism is the fruit of substantial moments of openness, not only to Greek and Arab philosophy but also to Islam and Christianity"--

Abstract

The study of »in Christ« language in New Testament scholarship has received widespread attention in recent years. Nevertheless, despite all the perspectives from which scholars have treated this topic, one aspect of »in Christ« language has received only scant attention: its ritual or sacramental aspect. While theological, epistemological, and linguistic factors have contributed to the downplaying of rituals like baptism and the Lord's Supper in the New Testament, Yu Chen develops the framework of a ritual transformation model from ritual theories to place the study of ritual in its rightful place. Accordingly, the author focuses on the historical and social implications of the ritual performance of baptism and the Lord's Supper, which are used to explain the mechanisms of union with Christ. Finally, he argues that rituals provide participants with access to the transformative experience of encountering the risen Messiah.

Abstract

La « Vie en Christ », écrite à la fin du XIVe siècle, est un des derniers ouvrages de spiritualité byzantine. Nicolas Cabasilas, dont les Sources chrétiennes ont déjà publié l'« Explication de la Divine Liturgie », récapitule, dans cette œuvre écrite à la fin de sa vie, à la fois son expérience personnelle et la tradition spirituelle byzantine. Pour cet « homme sage » resté laïc, mais proche des milieux monastiques de son temps, pour cet « hésychaste laïc », comme on l'a dit de lui, la vie en Christ, qui n'est autre que la vie du Christ en l'homme, est ouverte à tout baptisé. La spiritualité de ce laïc mystique, comme il y en avait beaucoup dans le monde byzantin, rejoint les préoccupations de plusieurs groupes spirituels d'aujourd'hui. Ce volume contient les quatre premiers livres de l'œuvre.
