Beskrivning

In the period of Roman domination there were communities of Jews, some still in Palestine, some dispersed in and around the Roman Empire; they had to face at first the world-wide power of the pagan Romans and later on the emergence of Christianity as an Empire-wide religion. How they coped with these dramatic changes and how they influenced the new forms of religious life that emerged in this period provide the main themes of The Jews Among Pagans and Christians. Essays by the leading scholars in the field together with the introduction by the editors, offer new approaches to understanding the role of Judaism and the pattern of religious interaction characteristic of the period.

'... attempts most successfully to restore the Jews to view' - Greece & Rome'... the book should be warmly recommended. Not the least of its virtues is that almost all the chapters - probably due to their origin as orally presented contributions - are highly informative without being unduly technical. The Jews among pagans and Christians offers historians of the Greco-Roman world a valuable introduction to current debates and controversies on the history of Diaspora Judaism, as well as food for thought on the religious history of the Roman Empire in general' - Mnemosyne, Volume XLIX
