Abstract
In the Ascension of Isaiah, the descent and ascent of the Beloved decisively bisects heavenly time around a past crisis, but earthly time runs through five periods with the crisis at the future overthrow of Beliar. The disjunction between these two views of time defines a soteriology of glory, summoning the reader to live in the experience of heavenly glory and to eschew Beliar's earthly glory.
