By identifying three categories of authority in each of the two religious worlds, they show how they have both worked in compelling or failing to get someone to do a given action.The arguments are introduced by a general discussion of the founding figures of the two religions, Moses and Jesus, and how their inherent authority distilled itself through the structure of their religious institutions and intellectual thoughts.AuthorityAuthority - Religious aspects - Comparative studieJudaismAuthority.Authority - Religious aspects - Comparative studie.Judaism.261.26296.6/7296.67Chilton Bruce281531Neusner Jacob147791AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910815830903321Types of Authority in Formative Christianity and Judaism4036624UNINA
