Introduction and history of scholarship on 4 Ezra -- The sapiential background of the conflicting theologies in the dialogues of 4 Ezra -- The dialogues of 4 Ezra as a wisdom debate -- The apocalyptic solution of the visions -- The epilogue and the context and purpose of 4 Ezra |
| Summary |
Scholarship on "4 Ezra" takes two divergent approaches - reading the dialogues between Ezra and Uriel as a reflection of theological debates, and focusing on the psychological development of the protagonist. This book offers an interpretation of the dialogues as a literary representation of a debate between covenantal and eschatological wisdom |
