<br/><br/>The beginning and the end in the Bible --  The beginning (the primal history) --  The end (history of the end time) --  The relationship between beginning and end. --  The correspondence between what the Bible says about the primal events and what it says about final events --  They are universal in scope and lie beyond history --  Primal time and end time: An excurses in the history of Biblical research (Gunkel's Schopfung und Chaos) --  References in the primal events to the end --  Beginning and end as continuing occurrences --  universal scope and language related to myth. --  Beginning and end in their relationship to the center of the Bible's message --  The significance of beginning and end in the Bible 
<br/><br/> Although the Bible speaks of the world's beginning on the first page and of the end time on the last, Christian theology has seldom treated them together. Claus Westermann shows that the beginning and the end of the Bible not only constitute a framework for biblical material, but also have many features in common.
