Eliade is mentioned here ... I like this summaries ..I am surprised that I havent heard Eliad mentioned in the ancient history Richard R and Pageau presentst.Wonder why ...
I haven't seen Pageau engage much with the comparative literature explicitly at all. That includes Jung, Neumann, Campbell stuff etc., too, let along more academic comparative religion. I'm inclined to conclude he's not familiar with this important literature, which is unfortunate. As for Richard R(ohr), I just don't think that's as much his interest/focus.
@@BrendanGrahamDempsey yes ..and it even seems to be a concious choise ,neglect or ignorance..locking that deep knowledge root into a black box signed as a forgotten or even forbidden area recomended not to investigate in for ¨their true followers¨ I was looking att the 4 hour summary yesterday from the symbolic world conf ..JP s talk again JP summed up in a narrowe way .. pointing out his own lack of orientation it seems like they want to build up their own Symbolic World some kind of monopolistic tendencies looking like a buisines idea as they are the¨ the only one ¨
Auspicious timing for this around the eclipse! Religion For Breakfast just released a great video about some of the ancient battle myths associated with solar and lunar eclipses, which I think is a great companion to this 👌
Leviathan and Behemoth ... reappear as the Dragon in Revelations. Gog and Magog perhaps. But goes back to Marduk's victory over Tiamat and Kingu ... Ba'al over Yam and Mot.
Yes, Leviathan reappears in Revelation as the dragon cast down from heaven, and in the Beasts that rise from the sea. Satan is the cosmic leviathan transposed into a transcendent register in apocalyptic thought.
