James Tabor | Death & Afterlife: A Hebrew Revolution @JamesTaborVideos | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
In this fifth video of the Death and Afterlife in the Ancient World series I begin to explore how the ancient Hebrew view of death began to fall apart and the new view of resurrection of the dead began to be developed in the early Roman period. The catalyst was the idea of eschatology, driven by a demand for justice--or Theodicy--where the "Good earth" of the Genesis account began to be questioned.
