>“Do not seek a wife. This is what I mean, brothers: the appointed time has grown very short. From now on, let those who have wives live as though they had none, and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no goods, and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away.” (1 Corinthians 7:27,29-31)
>“The end of all things is near…” (1 Peter 4:7)
>“…the coming of the Lord is near. …the Judge is standing right at the door.” (James 5:8, 9)
>We who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, shall not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the archangel’s call, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first; then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air (1 Thess. 4:15-17).
>Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. (Matthew 24:34)

Imagine Silmarillion, but with jewish tribes instead of Noldor/Teleri/etc.
Oh, and Melkor and Eru Iluvatar here are a one composite character (Yahweh Elohim).

I am not kidding, you need to know about the Greeks first, in order to comprehend that book.

In my experience - a syncretic synthesis of the objective (religious, judiciary, medicinal, mythological, poetic etc) spirit of the jewish people in the old testament, and a beautiful expose of christianity in mythological (luke, matthew, mark) and philosophical (john) discourse.

An enormously complex compendium of many different books of many genres rooted in a Jewish teleology and its historical context. There's a variety of ways you can approach it, but some of it can become very boring and repetitive. You will almost certainly need some sort of annotations or guides to grasp even the surface level stuff imo. There's far too many instances of sayings, teachings, events, etc. that require historical context to understand what's even happening. Start with Genesis, then read the Gospel of John.
