Intellectual Trends in the Bible
and Early Judaism: Prophecy,
Wisdom and Apocalyptic
This course explores the development of
intellectual trends in early Jewish literature from
the eighth century to the Hellenistic period. The
social function and background of prophetic,
apocalyptic and wisdom literature is explored
with particular attention paid to the books of
Amos, Hosea, Second Isaiah, Daniel, Enoch,
Proverbs, Ecclesiasticus and Ecclesiastes.
Finally we will examine the Dead Sea Scrolls
and question whether or not the literature of the
Dead Sea Scrolls was produced by a sect which
withdrew to the desert as a response to a crisis
in Jerusalem and in expectation of the eschaton.

Professor Anne FitzPatrick
