Focusing on late antiquity, the author explores the complexities of Jewish-Christianity by examining overlooked texts and traditions.

Reed's analysis offers a fresh perspective on the cultural and religious dynamics of the period, enriching the understanding of both faiths.

This book will appeal to readers interested in the history of human reflection on demons, angels, and other transmundane powers, as well as the different ways in which ancient cultures imagined the cosmos.
