Download or read book Temple and Empire written by Mina Monier and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-11-13 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Temple and Empire explores the theme of temple piety in Luke-Acts and 1 Clement in historical context. Mina Monier argues that situating both works in Trajanic Rome, and reading them through the lens of Roman imperial ideology explains their peculiarly positive presentation of the Temple as a form of reverence toward ancient worship and ancestral customs that would not offend, but would appeal to traditional Roman sensibilities.
