Description
Summary:Introduction -- The invention of Jewish Christianity: from Early Christian heresiology to John Toland's Nazarenus -- Jewish Christianity, Pauline Christianity, and the critical study of the New Testament: Thomas Morgan and F.C. Baur -- Apostolic vs. Judaizing Jewish Christianity: the reclamation of apostolic authority in post-Baur scholarship -- The legacy of Christian apologetics in post-Holocaust scholarship: Jean Daniélou, Mrcel Simon, and the problem of definition -- Problems and prospects: Jewish Christianity and identity in contemporary discussion -- Beyond Jewish Christianity: ancient social taxonomies and the Christianity-Judaism divide.
In this provocative work, Matt Jackson-McCabe argues that the concept of Jewish Christianity represents an enduring legacy of Christian apologetics. Freethinkers of the English Enlightenment created the category of Jewish Christianity as a means of isolating a true and distinctly Christian religion from the Jewish culture of Jesus and the apostles. Jackson-McCabe skillfully shows how a category that began as a way to reimagine the apologetic notion of an authoritative "original Christianity" continues to cause problems in the contemporary study of Jewish and Christian antiquity
