Product Description
by E. P. Sanders (Author)
Paul and Palestinian Judaism compares Judaism, understood on its own terms, with Paul, understood on his own terms. Sanders aims to:
Consider methodologically how to compare two (or more) related but different religions
Destroy the view of Rabbinic Judaism which is still prevalent in much, perhaps most, New Testament scholarship
Establish a different view of Rabbinic Judaism
Argue a case concerning Palestinian Judaism as a whole
Argue for a certain understanding of Paul
Carry out a comparison of Paul and Palestinian Judaism
This volume makes a contribution not only to the understanding of Paul and his relationship to Judaism, but also to the study of Judaism itself.
