Paul and Palestinian Judaism – E.P. Sanders Must-Have

Beschrijving

Paul and Palestinian Judaism

This controversial and encyclopaedic study compares the apostle Paul with contemporary Judaism, both understood on their own terms. E. P. Sanders proposes a methodology for comparing similar but distinct religious patterns, demolishes a flawed view of rabbinic Judaism still prevalent in much New Testament scholarship, and argues for a distinct understanding of the apostle and of the consequences of his conversion.

About the author:
