In John within Judaism, Wally V. Cirafesi offers a reading of the
Gospel of John as an expression of the fluid and flexible nature of
Jewish identity in Greco-Roman antiquity. While many have noted
John's general Jewishness, few have given it a seat at the
ideologically congested table of ancient Jewish practice and
belief. By interrogating the concept of "Judaism" in relation to
the complex categories of "religion" and "ethnicity," Cirafesi
argues that John negotiates Jewishness using strategies of ethnic
identity formation paralleled in other Jewish sources from the
Second Temple and early rabbinic periods. In this process of
negotiation, including its use of "high christology" and critique
of Ioudaioi, John coalesces with other expressions of ancient
Jewish identity and, thus, can be read "within Judaism."
