Carey presents an introduction to the elements of apocalyptic discourse in the Hebrew Bible, the intertestamental texts of the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha, and the Jewish and Christian apocalyptic texts. He seeks to help modern readers perplexed by the rampant and somewhat outrageous depiction and interpretation of apocalyptic literature to see apocalyptic discourse as a flexible set of resources that early Jews and Christians could employ for a variety of persuasive tasks. Carey examines each of the literary works that exhibit apocalyptic discourse. He briefly introduces the date and language of each text and shows its basic contents. Then he examines the particular topics and purposes of the work. Carey concludes by showing a way to read the particular example of apocalyptic discourse as a whole in its own setting with its own purposes. Carey invokes discourse as a category of study in an attempt to bring together the literary, ideological, and social dimensions of apocalyptic language. He sees the genius of apocalyptic discourse in its ability to bring its audience into otherwise inaccessible mysteries concerning the future and the heavenly realms. As theology, apocalyptic discourse engages life's greatest questions-the nature of God, the desire for justice, and the frustrations of human finitude. As poetry, it expresses the theological imagination in vivid symbols and conventional literary forms.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect
Color: Light Blue
For me this coffee warmer is perfect. The disk sides are just right. High enough for a good fit, but not so high you risk sloshing your beverage. The color (blue) is exactly as displayed. Works great and a very good price.

Works only moderately well to keep coffee hot
Color: Light Blue
Not quite what I expected. Although the base heats up as described, it does not keep my coffee as warm as I would expect at the highest temperature.

Excellent Warmer and the Rubber Pad is a very nice extra...
Color: 301 Black
... This really fits my cups perfectly... Just like it was made for these very cups. I wish I had found this one a long time ago and I am considering purchasing another one! Not Sure why they call it a "Coffee Cup Warmer", it would better known as a Beverage Warmer... but either way, it is a great unit and works great. Heat is great, I don't drink coffee, but it works equally well on Tea... This is an Excellent Value for the money.... Not throwing away cold tea and it stays HOT and mostly fresh! I wish I had found this a long time ago, much better than my older units. I will be purchasing another one in the near future! I think this unit is built well and will last a long time and I will... "Coffee Flavor" - No Thanks.... But it works great on HOT TEA! - Excellent Warmer and the Rubber Pad is a very nice extra... (It will help in not getting burned when I accidentally touch the heating surface by mistake! Excellent thought from the designer! You can adjust how hot to keep it and has a digital display to show the Temp that it is keeping the temperature of. I really like this item and I do highly recommend for Hot Tea and Coffee Drinkers, Works great for Hot Chocholate as well!... Doesn't let your drink get cold!
