In recent years scholars have re-evaluated the "parting of the
ways" between Judaism and Christianity, reaching new understandings
of the ways shared origins gave way to two distinct and sometimes
inimical religious traditions. But this has been a profoundly
textual task, relying on the writings of rabbis, bishops, and other
text-producing elites to map the terrain of the "parting." This
book takes up the question of the divergence of Judaism and
Christianity in terms of material--the stuff made, used, and left
behind by the persons that lived in and between these religions as
they were developing. Considering the glass, clay, stone, paint,
vellum, and papyrus of ancient Jews and Christians, this book maps
the "parting" in new ways, and argues for a greater role for
material and materialism in our reconstructions of the past.
