John and Judaism: A Contested Relationship in Context - Hardcover

by R. Alan Culpepper (Editor), Paul N. Anderson (Editor)

Written during the period of the emergence of Christianity and its separation from Judaism, the Gospel of John bears witness to their contested relationship. This volume contains cutting-edge essays written by an international group of scholars who interpret for students and general readers what John tells us about first-century Judaism, the separation of the church from Judaism, and how John's anti-Jewish references are interpreted today.
