Between the Testaments
In most Bibles the period between the Old
and the New Testaments is represented by a
single blank page which, perhaps, has
symbolic significance. 'From Malachi to
Matthew' has for long remained vague and
unfamiliar to many readers of the
Scriptures. Many mysteries remain, but in
recent times much light has been cast on
this whole period. Exciting new insights
have been provided by the writings of
numbers of
scholars and by some remarkable
archaeological discoveries. The discovery
of the Dead Sea Scrolls caught the popular
imagination and engaged the attention of
worldwide scholarship. In this small volume
an attempt is made to review these years in
the light of recent study and discoveries
and in particular to assess the religious
contribution made by that rather strange
company of men known as 'the
apocalyptists'. The purpose of this book is
selective rather than exhaustive, indicating
the part which the apocalyptists had to play
within the religious development of Judaism
and in the preparation of men's minds for
the coming of Christianity.
