The Beginning of the End: The Eschatology of Genesis
|
|
|
|
Abstract:
Abstract This dissertation examines the book of Genesis as a functioning literary whole, orienting post-exilic Persian-era Judeans toward their ideal future expectations. While many have contrasted Genesis' account of origins with the prophetic books' account of the future, this work argues that Genesis narrates Israel's origins (and the world's) precisely in order to ground Judean hopes for an eschatological restoration. Employing a speech-act linguistic semiotics, this study explores the temporal orientation of Genesis and its indexical pointing to the lives and hopes of its Persian-era users. Promises made throughout Genesis apply not only to the characters of traditional memory, but also to those who preserved/ composed/ received the text of Genesis. Divine promises for Israel's future help constitute Israel's ongoing identity. Poor, sparsely populated, Persian-ruled Judea imagines its mythic destiny as a great nation exemplifying (and spreading) blessing among the families of the earth, dominating central Palestine in a new pan- Israelite unity with neighboring Samaria and expanding both territory and population. Genesis' narrative of Israel's origins and destiny thus dovetails with the Persian-era expectations attested in Israel's prophetic corpus--a coherent (though variegated) restoration eschatology. This prophetic eschatology shares mythic traditions with Genesis, using those traditions typologically to point to Israel's future hope. Taken together, Genesis and the prophetic corpus identify Israel as a precious seed, carrying forward promises of a yet-to-be-realized creation fruitfulness and blessing. Those who used this literature identify their disappointments and tragedies in terms of the mythic destruction and cursing that threaten creation but never extinguish the line of promise. The dynamic processes of Genesis' usage (its composition stretching back to the pre-exilic period, and its reception stretching forward to the post-Persian era) have made Genesis an etiology of Israel's expected future--not of its static present. Because v this future will be fully realized only in the coming divine visitation, Genesis cannot be attributed to an anti-eschatological, hierocratic establishment. Rather, it belongs to the same Persian-era Judean synthesis which produced the restoration eschatology of the prophetic corpus. This account of Genesis contributes to a canonical understanding of Second Temple Hebrew literature; prophetic scrolls and Pentateuchal (Torah) scrolls interact to form a textually based Israelite identity, founded on trust in a divinely promised future.
