Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the historical interplay between Christianity and Judaism, this study explores how Christianity adopted Jewish attributes, particularly the designation of 'Israel.' Dr. Richardson argues that this complex evolution spanned centuries, culminating in the mid-second century with Justin Martyr's writings. The work includes an exegetical analysis of relevant New Testament passages, particularly the Pauline epistles, and examines Jesus' views on Israel, post-Pauline developments, and early Church Fathers. The book concludes with a synthesis of findings and appendices addressing various Jewish sects and theological implications for the Church.
