Lecturas Recomendadas

Link original: https://drmsh.com/recommended-reading

Esta página es una lista minimalista de libros que el Dr. Heiser recomienda sobre diversos temas. Dado que el Dr. Heiser trata activamente de inyectar pensamiento sensato en temas marginales y pseudohistoria a través de su podcast Peeranormal [por ahora sólo disponible en inglés] y su canal de YouTube, esta lista incluye temas “Fringe”. Su inclusión no significa que apruebe el contenido de ningún artículo, salvo su propio trabajo.

Con respecto a su propia investigación, la bibliografía de los temas tratados en el libro del Dr. Heiser, El Mundo Invisible, es voluminosa. La bibliografía personal del Dr. Heiser para esa investigación cuenta actualmente con 6.200 entradas. Aparte de los artículos bibliográficos de El Mundo Invisible, se remite a los lectores a la sección en este sitio web en donde se publicarán los artículos y referencias. Con respecto al consejo divino, se anima a los lectores a la sección en este sitio web dedicada a ese tema [todavía en construcción].

Génesis 6, 1 Enoc, Recepción de 1 Enoc en la Iglesia primitive

Amar Annus, “On the Origin of the Watchers: A Comparative Study of the Antediluvian Wisdom in Mesopotamian and Jewish Traditions,” Journal for the Study of the Pseudepigrapha 19.4 (2010): 277–320

Se trata del artículo más importante hasta la fecha sobre Gn 6:1-4. Supera todos los trabajos realizados sobre el trasfondo mesopotámico, trabajos que francamente palidecen en comparación con los datos que Annus aporta sobre el pasaje. Annus muestra con gran claridad cómo las tradiciones apkallu mesopotámicas son el trasfondo de Gn 6:1-4 (y, por tanto, el trasfondo sobrenatural sobre el que se escribió y debe entenderse), junto con la forma en que los escritores judíos del Segundo Templo comprendieron el trasfondo mesopotámico. La tradición cristiana posterior (es decir, los padres de la iglesia) no sabía nada de este trasfondo, por lo que las primeras interpretaciones de la iglesia que produjeron la visión setita violaron el contexto original del texto. En resumen, cualquier interpretación no sobrenaturalista de Gn 6:1-4 es incoherente con el contexto mesopotámico original en el que se centra la polémica del pasaje.
