Beskrivning
The mystery of lost, apocryphal Jewish-Christian gospels has intrigued scholars for centuries. Scholars have also debated whether the Ebionites with their low Christology or the more “orthodox” Nazarenes are the genuine successors of the early Jerusalem church. This book provides a fresh assessment of the patristic sources and the scholarly theories on the number and contents of Jewish-Christian gospels. A new approach, the study of indicators of Jewish-Christian profiles, shows the artificial nature of the church fathers’ heretical discourse, bringing forth previously neglected connections between various Jewish-Christian movements. This book also challenges the widely accepted theory of three Jewish-Christian gospels bringing the Gospel of the Hebrews closer to its synoptic cousins—not, however, as a witness of the earliest Jesus traditions but as a post-synoptic composition.

Recensioner i media

"This book offers many important methodological and theoretical insights concerning Jewish-Christian gospels. It also advocates a new hypothesis concerning their number, inter-relationships, and handling of Matthean gospels. This book will be of particular interest to specialsts workin on Jewish-Christian gospels, and more generally those interested in better understanding the complex relationship, and at times overlap, between Christianity and Judaism in the first five centuries of the common era." – Paul Foster, in: The Expository Times 124/3 (December 2012)
