tradition And Revelation Are Often Regarded As Polar Opposites: Tradition Is Identified With The Dead Hand Of The Past, And Revelation Is Seen As Given Definitively Once And For All. Through Detailed Examination Of Some Key Biblical Narratives, This Book Argues That Postcanonical Traditions Have Not Only Sometimes Functioned As Imaginative Enrichments Of Religious Belief, They Can Also At Times Lay Claim To The Title Of Revelation.
