The Early History of Heaven
Wright, J. Edward (Associate Professor of Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism, Associate Professor of Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism, University of Arizona)
This volume traces the backgrounds, origin, and development of early Jewish and Christian speculation about the heavenly realm - where it is, what it looks like and who its inhabitants are. It begins by reconstructing the intellectual context in which the earliest biblical images of heaven arose.
