What were Jews saying and doing about the followers of Jesus in the first two centuries? In this provocative and comprehensive study, Claudia Setzer argues persuasively that Jews saw the early followers of Jesus as Jews for some time after the Christians viewed themselves as separate from the larger Jewish communities.
This book provides historical context and nuanced exegesis of texts that continue to be “trouble spots” in Jewish-Christian relations. It illuminates the diverse strands of early anti-Judaism while providing the reader with some surprises.
