From Babylon to Eternity: The Exile Remembered and Constructed in Text and Tradition

by Bob Becking, Alex Cannegieter, Wilfred Van Der Poll

This book takes the reader in wider circles from Babylon to Eternity and deals with the appropriation of the exilic motif in Jewish texts. It examines the way the exilic tradition–interpreting the Exile as a religious experience – was created by the writers of the Hebrew Bible.
