The Symbolic Vision in Biblical Tradition

Niditch, Susan. The Symbolic Vision in Biblical Tradition. Chico, California: Scholars Press, 1980. First edition. Octavo. xii, 258pp. Original bright red cloth with gilt lettering on cover and spine. “Many scholars have dealt with the symbolic visions of the OT, but none has approached this topic with enough attention to the relationship between history and form. The developmental, history-of-traditions approach suggested in this study leads to a new understanding of the interrelationships between twelve symbolic visions in OT: Am 7:7-9; 8:1-3; Jer 1:11-12; 1:13-19; 24; Zech 1:7-17; 2:1-4; 4:1-6a; 10b-14; 5:1-4; 6:1-8; Daniel 7; and 8. The study will deal briefly also with four symbolic visions of 2 Baruch and 4 Ezra.” (Introduction). Harvard Semitic Monographs edited by Frank Moore Cross.
