The theme of this volume is that of continuity and discontinuity
between early Christianity and its Jewish parent. The formation of
Christian thought in the context of its Jewish beginnings is the
focus of much debate and controversy. These essays cover the
historical and social background of Palestine and the Diaspora; the
main components of the New Testament canon and early non-canonical
writings, examining their relationship to the Jewish tradition; and
central themes including monotheism and Christology, apocalyptism,
ethics, and martyrdom. The concise treatments, with their helpful
bibliographies, by an international team of experts will be of
interest and value to teachers and undergraduate students of the
New Testament and Christian origins. It puts an alternative
complexion on the relationship between Judaism and the convictions
of the early Christians, and will stimulate discussion.
