Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
This collection presents innovative research by scholars from
across the globe in celebration of Gabriele Boccaccini's sixtieth
birthday and to honor his contribution to the study of early
Judaism and Christianity. In harmony with Boccaccini's
determination to promote the study of Second Temple Judaism in its
own right, this volume includes studies on various issues raised in
early Jewish apocalyptic literature (e.g., 1 Enoch, 2 Baruch, 4
Ezra), the Dead Sea Scrolls, and other early Jewish texts, from
Tobit to Ben Sira to Philo and beyond. The volume also provides
several investigations on early Christianity in intimate
conversation with its Jewish sources, consistent with Boccaccini's
efforts to transcend confessional and disciplinary divisions by
situating the origins of Christianity firmly within Second Temple
Judaism. Finally, the volume includes essays that look at
Jewish-Christian relations in the centuries following the Second
Temple period, a harvest of Boccaccini's labor to rethink the
relationship between Judaism and Christianity in light of their
shared yet contested heritage.
