The present volume is based on a conference held in October 2019 at
the Faculty of Theology of Humboldt University Berlin as part of a
common project of the Australian Catholic University, the
Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and the Humboldt University Berlin.
The aim is to discuss the relationships of "Jews" and "Christians"
in the first two centuries CE against the background of recent
debates which have called into question the image of "parting ways"
for a description of the relationships of Judaism and Christianity
in antiquity. One objection raised against this metaphor is that it
accentuates differences at the expense of commonalities. Another
critique is that this image looks from a later perspective at
historical developments which can hardly be grasped with such a
metaphor. It is more likely that distinctions between Jews,
Christians, Jewish Christians, Christian Jews etc. are more blurred
than the image of "parting ways" allows. In light of these
considerations the contributions in this volume discuss the cogency
of the "parting of the ways"-model with a look at prominent early
Christian writers and places and suggest more appropriate metaphors
to describe the relationships of Jews and Christians in the early
period.
