The Genesis and Concept of the Apocalyptic
This chapter explores the genesis and background of a recently published book on the essay by Jacques Ellul, including the challenges faced during the translation and editing process. It delves into the concept of the apocalyptic as described by Ellul and contributors to the book, discussing how it represents the simultaneous clarity and uncertainty, hopefulness and terror that arise when God reveals Himself. The chapter also examines the significance of the desert as an ambiguous place in biblical texts and its metaphorical existence in various contexts, such as urban centers and online spaces.
