Collins\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book traces the history of the idea that the king and later the messiah is Son of God, from its origins in ancient Near Eastern royal ideology to its Christian appropriation in the New Testament. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Both highly regarded scholars, Adela Yarbro Collins and John J. Collins argue that Jesus was called \"the Son of God\" precisely because he was believed to be the messianic king. This belief and tradition, they contend, led to the identification of Jesus as preexistent, personified Wisdom, or a heavenly being in the New Testament canon. However, the titles Jesus is given are historical titles tracing back to Egyptian New Kingdom ideology. Therefore the title \"Son of God\" is likely solely messianic and not literal. \u003ci\u003eKing and Messiah as Son of God\u003c\/i\u003e is distinctive in its range, spanning both Testaments and informed by ancient Near Eastern literature and Jewish noncanonical literature.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 275\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.73 x 8.96 x 6.18 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 01, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42593531658336,"sku":"9780802807724","price":47.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/YlQwR0xDNlc5U3Q4c2N2dWQ0bWo2UT09.webp?v=1771523713","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/king-and-messiah-as-son-of-god-divine-human-and-angelic-messianic-figures-in-biblical-and-related-literature-paperback-1","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
