The history and everyday lives of Jews and Christians in
Roman-Byzantine Palestine were both separate and intertwined from
the time of Jesus and afterwards. At first, it was not always easy
to tell Jew and Christian apart and even when their ways parted,
many aspects of their respective societies and material culture
were similar and often indistinguishable from one another. Beliefs
might have evolved differently, there may have been tension between
the communities, particularly over Jerusalem and the meaning of its
Temple, and Jews and Christians did engage in theological polemics,
but their daily lives intersected and when it came to dress,
recreation, leisure, and pets, they were often the same. Jews
cannot be understood without Christians nor can Christians of
ancient Palestine be understood without Jews. Separate, but
together, different, but often identical. This work includes the
previously-published collected studies of the author on Jews and
Christians in Roman-Byzantine Palestine.
