Using methods from literary criticism. social history, and social theory, Eliijah In Upper Egypt makes a fresh contribution to our understanding of early Egyptian Christianity by describing the genesis and meaning of the Coptic Apocalypse of Eliijah. This document, an extended prophecy of the end times that enjoyed wide circulation in late antiquity, reflects a type of Christianity rarely discussed in scholarly literature, one that was rural, semi-literate, ascetically oriented, and fanatically millennialist.
