Life After Death A history of the afterlife in Western religion

Segal, Alan F. 1945-2011

Life After Death A history of the afterlife in Western religion Alan F. Segal - U.S.A. Doubleday 2004 - 866tr. Hardcover, illustrations 25 cm

Alan Segal's new book challenges Jewish and Christian scholars alike to take a fresh look at this well-educated man, arguing not only that it is impossible to understand Paul's Christian writings without understanding first-century Judaism but that early Hellenistic Judaism is itself illuminated by Paul, since he was one of only two Pharisees to have left any personal writing at all.
