If I may contribute some information to the
discussion I should say that the Greco-Roman East following each own local
traditions deified and worshipped the emperors while still alive. For example
the people of Thessalonica worshipped Augustus and Claudius attributing to them
the title "God". Living emperors could also do miracles, vgl. the case of
Vespasian in Egypt if I am not wrong.

Thessalonica, Greece
I think that depends upon the Emperor. If memory serves, both Caligula and Nero had themselves deified while alive, but "the Divine Julius" and "the Deified Augustus" were done posthumously. best, Ed Tyler http://hometown.aol.com/leeedgartyler/myhomepage/index.html --- You are currently subscribed to corpus-paul as: etsalampouni AT hotmail.com To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub') |
