Scholarly literature on Jesus has often attempted to relate his
miracles to their Jewish context, but that context has not been
surveyed in its own right. The present study supplies that lack by
examining both the ideas on miracle in Second Temple literature
(including Josephus, Philo, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Apocrypha and
Pseudepigrapha) and the evidence for contemporary Jewish miracle
workers. The penultimate chapter explores insights from cultural
anthropology to round out the picture obtained from the literary
evidence, and the study concludes that Jesus is distinctive as a
miracle-worker in his Jewish context while nevertheless fitting
into it.
