Carey presents an introduction to the elements of apocalyptic discourse in the Hebrew Bible, the intertestamental texts of the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha, and the Jewish and Christian apocalyptic texts. He seeks to help modern readers perplexed by the rampant and somewhat outrageous depiction and interpretation of apocalyptic literature to see apocalyptic discourse as a flexible set of resources that early Jews and Christians could employ for a variety of persuasive tasks. Carey examines each of the literary works that exhibit apocalyptic discourse. He briefly introduces the date and language of each text and shows its basic contents. Then he examines the particular topics and purposes of the work. Carey concludes by showing a way to read the particular example of apocalyptic discourse as a whole in its own setting with its own purposes. Carey invokes discourse as a category of study in an attempt to bring together the literary, ideological, and social dimensions of apocalyptic language. He sees the genius of apocalyptic discourse in its ability to bring its audience into otherwise inaccessible mysteries concerning the future and the heavenly realms. As theology, apocalyptic discourse engages life's greatest questions-the nature of God, the desire for justice, and the frustrations of human finitude. As poetry, it expresses the theological imagination in vivid symbols and conventional literary forms.Binding Type: Paperback

Compact, comes with a brush to clean, quality stainless steel
I compared several options, examined many images, and read numerous reviews. The thickness and quality of the stainless steel are excellent. The handle is sturdy and strong, making it a reliable choice. Its compact design is a great advantage for travel. It is easy to use, and the coffee tastes great. Additionally, it cleans easily and offers very good value for the money. and offers very good value for the money.

Perfect Compact Coffee Grinder
This grinder is great for making one or two cups worth of coffee. The coarseness adjustment is easy and reliable and produces perfectly ground coffee for a French Press. The ceramic burrs work very well and do not heat up like metal burrs. The grinder is easily disassembled for cleaning. I'm ordering a second grinder to keep with my camping equipment. I highly recommend this grinder.

A worthy product.
This is a great little grinder. I roast my own beans, grind normally with an electric, and brew with Aeropress. This is for travel.... Light, compact, not used everyday, and easy to clean. Works just as expected. My only less than 5 stars comment is absent guidance on reassembly after cleaning and a washer fell out. Customer support was 5 star in guiding me. Well done Simcoker!
