Supernal Serpent is a wide-ranging study of Jewish and Christian traditions about Leviathan as the underworld's ruler, the foundation of the world, and the embodiment of evil. It explores the Leviathan tradition in its full historical and interpretive complexity through a broad variety of texts, ranging from ancient West Asian accounts to later rabbinic and Muslim sources, paying special attention to the imagery found in the Book of Job, the Book ofRevelation, and the Apocalypse of Abraham. The book demonstrates that, in some Jewish materials, Leviathan is envisioned as a living embodiment of the most profound divine mysteries, which are preserved by God from the beginning of creation, to be revealed fully in the end of times.
