The Grammar of Messianism: An Ancient Jewish Political Idiom and Its Users
Novenson, Matthew V. (Senior Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, University of Edinburg)
In this book, Novenson gives a revisionist account of messianism in antiquity. He shows that, for the ancient Jews and Christians who used the term, a messiah was not an article of faith but a manner of speaking: a scriptural figure of speech useful for thinking kinds of political order.
