Rüdiger LuxProphetie und Zweiter TempelStudien zu Haggai und Sacharja
[Prophecy and the Second Temple. Studies of Haggai and Zechariah.]Published in German. Rüdiger Lux presents a collection of partly previously unpublished studies about Haggai and Zechariah 1-8. In one essay, he deals with the composition of Haggai and Proto-Zechariah. Several other cultural studies are dedicated to the relationship between icon, vision and text in the night visions of Zechariah. He also discusses the prophetic conceptions of the rebuilding of Jerusalem and the Second Temple in exilic and post-exilic times and illuminates the marginal role of the Persian government in this matter, unlike the description given in Ezra and Nehemiah. Three theological studies deal with the appearance and the meaning of the "glory" and the "spirit" of Yahweh, the concept of conditional salvation in Zech 1:1-6 and the relationship between Yahweh, Israel and the nations. In conclusion, the author describes Zechariah's calling, the figure and function of the angelus interpres and the problem of preaching from prophetic texts.eBook
