The Partings of the Ways

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the emergence of Christian distinctiveness in the first century, the book delves into the separation of Christianity and Judaism. It outlines four foundational aspects of Judaism—monotheism, election and land, Torah, and Temple—before exploring key issues related to Jesus, such as his relationship with the Temple, the Stephen affair, and his teachings on God and the law. Dunn presents a thorough examination of the theological debates between Jews and Christians, culminating in a discussion on the significant parting of the ways.
