• Nir, Rivka  The Destruction of Jerusalem and the Idea of Redemption in the “Syriac Apocalypse of Baruch” “The Syriac Apocalypse of Baruch is a pseudepigraphic apocalyptic work ascribed to Baruch, son of Neriah and the scribe of Jeremiah. Its overt content concerning the last days of the First Temple period disguises a description of the fall of the Second Temple in 70 C.E.  Contrary to the general scholarly view, this book attempts to show that the internal structure and central ideas of 2 Baruch must be understood in a Christian context. This theological identity is reflected mainly in traditions which describe the destruction of Jerusalem and the three apocalyptic visions which depict the coming of the Messiah and the eschatological redemption. These two main themes, which stood at the very core of the dispute between Judaism and Christianity and clearly reflect the basic differences in the outlooks of the two faiths, can be criteria to uncover the theological identity of the work. The author’s conclusion sheds light on the Christian character of other pseudepigraphic and apocalyptic books”  (EJL 20  Society of Biblical Literature – SBL, viii + 318 pages, Paper, English, 2003).

• Rayner, William, The Last Days  (London – 1968) “This is the story of the fall of Jerusalem to the Romans and of their strange, empty victory at Masada, the last remaining strong-hold of the Jews. It is also the story of the increasing desperation of the Jews, their disillusion and despair when the expected climax of the Last Days fails to come and their faith in the Holy One is shaken. The story is woven from familiar Biblical writings and from events vouched for by historians, both Roman and Jewish, events since confirmed by the finding of archaeologists. The author has combined extensive research with a vivid, creative imagination to produce a book of religious, historical and dramatic interest mounting to the violent yet poignant finale.”

2,000 YEARS OF JOSEPHUS

• Bentwich, Norman: Josephus  (1914) “Yet did they occasion the fulfilment of prophecies relating to their country. For there was an ancient oracle that the city should be taken and the sanctuary burnt when sedition should affect the Jews.” Josephus shares the pagan outlook of the Roman historian Tacitus, who is horrified at the Jewish disregard of the omens and portents which betokened the fall of their city, and speaks of them as a people prone to superstition (what we would call faith) and deaf to divine warnings (what we would call superstition). Josephus and his friends were looking for signs and prophecies of the ruin of the people as an excuse for surrender; the Zealots, men of sterner stuff and of fuller faith, were resolved to resist to the end, and would brook no parleying with the enemy.”

• Jacques Lebar & Gérard Israel (1970) “The story is of an event which concerns the Jewish people and all men adhering to monotheism, and which occurred nineteen hundred years ago, in the year 70 on the day which is, by the Hebrews calendar, the ninth day of the month of Ab (July-August).  On that day the Roman soldiers burned and destroyed the Temple at Jerusalem.  on that day the Jewish soul was struck at its very core.. The history of the West is also tied to the event of the 9th of Ab, 70.  In the destruction of the Temple, which Jesus had frequented, the first Christians saw the proof of the arrival of a new world..  Unlike other great events in Antiquity, and even in times nearer to our own, all the consequences of the battle and fall of Jerusalem have not yet run their course.” (GOOGLE | FROOGLE)

PRE-70 DATE FOR BOOK OF REVELATION:

ADVOCATES FOR THE EARLY DATING
OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION

Greg Bahnsen (1984) “A partial list of scholars who have supported the early date for Revelation, gleaned unsystematically from my reading, would include the following 18th and 19th writers not already mentioned just above: John Lightfoot, Harenberg, Hartwig, Michaelis, Tholuck, Clarke, Bishop Newton, James MacDonald, Gieseler, Tilloch, Bause, Zullig, Swegler, De Wett, Lucke, Bohmer, Hilgenfeld, Mommsen, Ewald, Neander, Volkmar, Renan, Credner, Kernkel, B. Weiss, Reuss, Thiersch, Bunsen, Stier, Auberlen, Maurice, Niermeyer, Desprez, Aube, Keim, De Pressence, Cowles, Scholten, Beck, Dusterdiek, Simcox, S. Davidson, Beyschlag, Salmon, Hausrath. Continuing on into the 20th century we could list Plummer, Selwyn, J.V. Bartlet, C.A. Scott, Erbes, Edmundson, Henderson, and others. If one’s reading has been limited pretty much to the present and immediately preceding generations of writers on Revelation, then the foregoing names may be somewhat unfamiliar to him, but they were not unrecognized in previous eras. When we combine these names with the yet outstanding stature of Schaff, Terry, Lightfoot, Westcott, and Hort, we can feel the severity of Beckwith’s understatement when in 1919 he described the Neronian dating for Revelation as “a view held by many down to recent times.”[40] By many indeed! It has been described, as we saw above, as “the ruling view” of critics,” by “the majority of modern critics,” by “most modern scholars,” and by “the whole force of modern criticism.” The weight of scholarship placed behind the Neronian option for the dating of Revelation has been staggering. In our won day it has gained the support of such worthies as C.C. Torrey, J.A.T. Robinson, and F.F. Bruce and has been popularized by Jay Adams.[41] In 1956 Torrey could write about the number 666, “It is now the accepted conclusion that the beast is the emperor Nero.”[42]” (Historical Setting for the Dating of Revelation)

The Middle Ages
“VENGEANCE OF THE LORD” AND “WANDERING JEW” TRADITIONS

• Aucto de la destruición de Jerusalén

• Croly, George, TARRY THOU TILL I COME or, Salathiel, the Wandering Jew  (1677) “A historical novel, dealing with the momentous events that occurred, chiefly in Palestine, from the time of the Crucifixion to the destruction of Jerusalem.   The book, as a story, is replete with Oriental charm and richness, and the character drawing is marvelous. No other novel ever written has portrayed with such vividness the events that convulsed Rome and destroyed Jerusalem in the early days of Christianity.”

• Crowne, John, The Destruction of Jerusalem by Titus Vespasian

• David Hook: The Destruction of Jerusalem in the Catalan and Castilian Texts  (2000)

• Huchown  Siege of Jerusalem “Even within the relatively small corpus of late Middle English poetry, we have at least four extant poems that focus primarily on the Vengeance of Our Lord: the alliterative poem of Siege of Jerusalem here edited, two versions (one short, one long) of the rhyming-couplet Titus and Vespasian, and a translation of Roger d’Argenteuil’s Bible en François. ” Edited by Michael Livingston

• Wright, Stephen – Vengeance of Our Lord: Medieval Dramatizations of the Destruction of Jerusalem (1989)

• Schabalie, Johann Philip – Lusthoef des Gemoets, The Wandering Soul (1635)

• Veronica Avenging of the Savior (8th C.)

“As Alvin E. Ford has pointed out, the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries were witness to a flurry of texts in the Vengeance of Our Lord tradition: “Verse versions, prose versions, chansons de geste, mystery plays, book-length documents and one-page résumés, all attest to the widespread diffusion of the apocryphal Vengeance of Our Lord throughout the medieval Christian world.” Of Old and Middle French prose versions alone, Ford identifies fifty-four (and counting) manuscripts, “representing nine independent but interrelated traditions,” the primary works being La Vengeance de Nostre-Seigneur and Roger d’Argenteuil’s Bible en François.¹⁸ Wright, studying the representation of Jerusalem’s destruction in medieval drama, comments (p. 1) on the surprising popularity of the story in drama during this same period:

From their first appearance in the mid-fourteenth century until as late as 1622, plays of the destruction of Jerusalem are known to have been performed in six different languages (German, French, Italian, Spanish, English, and Latin) to the delight of audiences in dozens of communities scattered across the Continent. Indeed, French performance records indicate that, over the course of more than two centuries, only the story of Christ’s Passion was staged more frequently than the Vengeance of Our Lord. By the late sixteenth century, dramatizations of the siege of Jerusalem, most of which required from two to four days to perform, had spread from their earliest homes in Thuringia and Burgundy to the Tirol, Savoy, the Italian Briançonnais, Switzerland, England, and Castile.

Even within the relatively small corpus of late Middle English poetry, we have at least four extant poems that focus primarily on the Vengeance of Our Lord: the alliterative poem of Siege of Jerusalem here edited, two versions (one short, one long) of the rhyming-couplet Titus and Vespasian, and a translation of Roger d’Argenteuil’s Bible en François. ” Edited by Michael Livingston
