On Earth As It Is in Heaven Temple Symbolism in the New Testament

"Her [Barker] thesis is twofold. The Jerusalem Temple was the point of interaction between heaven and earth, the actual rituals and the participants there corresponded to, and were virtually identically with, the worship in heaven--hence the work's title....Barker presents her case clearly and cogently, guiding the general reader through the somewhat daunting imagery of the pseudepigraphical literature....This is a stimulating book, of appeal both to biblical scholars and to those concerned with the more general currents in the religious thought and practice of the present.Barker, Margaret is the author of 'On Earth As It Is in Heaven Temple Symbolism in the New Testament' with ISBN 9780567292780 and ISBN 0567292789.
