2020, CBQ

AI-generated Abstract

Jack Levison's book examines the origins of pneumatology, challenging the Christian-centric view by tracing the concept of the Holy Spirit back to post-exilic Jewish theology and the divine agents during the Exodus. Levison argues for a broader understanding of pneumatology, advocating for collaborative scholarship between Jews and Christians. The work thoroughly analyzes biblical texts such as Isaiah and Haggai, highlighting the complex meanings of divine presence and the spirit.
