Judaism in Late Antiquity 2. Historical Syntheses
Author: Jacob NeusnerPublisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004293965
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
These two volumes introduce the sources of Judaism in late antiquity to scholars in adjacent fields, such as the study of the Old and New Testaments, ancient history of Classical Antiquity, earliest Christianity, the ancient Near East, and the history of religion. Here, in two volumes, leading American, Israeli, and European specialists in the history, literature, theology, and archaeology of Judaism offer factual answers to the two questions that the study of any religion in ancient times must raise. The first is, what are the sources — written and in material culture — that inform us about that religion? The second is, how do we understand those sources in the reconstruction of the history of various Judaic systems in antiquity. The chapters set forth in simple statements, intelligible for non-specialists, the facts the sources provide. Because of the nature of the subject and acute interest in it, we also raise some questions particular to the study of Judaism, those dealing with its historical relationship with nascent Christianity in New Testament times. The work forms the starting point for the study of all the principal questions concerning Judaism in late antiquity and sets forth the most current, critical results of scholarship.
Roots of Rabbinic Judaism
Author: BoccacciniPublisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing

Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
In a bold challenge to the long-held scholarly notion that Rabbinic Judaism already was an established presence during the Second Temple period, Boccaccini argues that Rabbinic Judaism was a daring reform movement that developed following the destruction of the Jerusalem temple and took shape in the first centuries of the common era.

Wissenschaft des Judentums Beyond Tradition
Author: Dorothea M. SalzerPublisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110592673
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
The scholarly study of the texts traditionally regarded as sacred in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam has been an important aspect of Wissenschaft des Judentums and was often conceptualized as part of Jewish theology. Featuring studies on Isaak Markus Jost's Jewish children's Bible, Samson Raphael Hirsch's complex position on the question whether or not the Hebrew Bible is to be understood within the context of the Ancient Orient, Isaac Mayer Wise's "The Origin of Christianity," Ignaz Goldziher’s Scholarship on the Qur'an, modern translators of the Qur'an into Hebrew, and the German translation of the Talmud, the volume attempts to shed light on some aspects of this phenomenon, which as a whole seems to have received few scholarly attention, and to contextualize it within the contemporary intellectual currents.
