Many types of tradition and interpretation found in later Jewish
and Christian writings trace their origins to the Second Temple
period, but their transmission and transformation followed
different paths within the two religious communities. For example,
while Christians often translated and transmitted discrete Second
Temple texts, rabbinic Judaism generally preserved earlier
traditions integrated into new literary frameworks. In both cases,
ancient traditions were often transformed to serve new purposes but
continued to bear witness to their ancient roots. Later
compositions may even provide the key to clarifying obscurities in
earlier texts. The contributions in this volume explore the
dynamics by which earlier texts and traditions were transmitted and
transformed in these later bodies of literature and their attendant
cultural contexts.
