Jewish-Christian Dialogues on Scripture in Late Antiquity

Beschreibung

Rabbinic stories portraying heretics (minim) typically involve a conflict over biblical interpretation. Using previously untapped Christian materials, this book examines heretic narratives of the Babylonian Talmud. It reveals new content in familiar texts, and reaches new conclusions regarding the Jewish-Christian relations in Late Antiquity.
