^{page 200 note 26} This cosmic scope of apocalyptic is often used as just such an excuse for generalizing what should remain particular, in, for instance, the work of E. Käsemann.

^{page 200 note 28} The phrase ‘a new world order’ has now been used, with a slightly different sense, by Sanders, E. P. in his Jesus and Judaism, S.C.M., London, 1985Google Scholar. I use it in order to indicate the continuity of the hoped-for state with present space-time events. I have discussed the issues involved here in my article ‘Jesus, Israel and the Cross’ in SBL Seminar Papers 1985, ed. Richards, K. H., Scholars' Press, 1985Google Scholar. If ‘apocalyptic’ is thus understood as a complex, and theologically charged, metaphor-system for referring to future space-time events a different perspective is introduced to Harvey's fourth chapter (‘Jesus and Time: The Constraint of an Ending’).

^{page 201 note 31} This shows that to make a split between Jesus' expectation of the kingdom and his expectations concerning his own fate is to create a false antithesis: contra e.g. Watson, F. B., ‘Why Was Jesus Crucified?’, Theology March 1985, pp. 105–112.Google Scholar
