ChiltonWaco, Tex. Baylor University Pressc20071 online resource (524 p.)Description based upon print version of record.9781932792720 1932792724 Includes bibliographical references (p. 481-509).First-century accounts -- The Pharisees in rabbinic Judaism -- The Pharisees in modern theology -- Conclusion.This work sketches the many portraits of the Pharisees that emerge from ancient sources. Based upon the Gospels, the writings of Paul, Josephus, the Mishnah, the Tosefta, and archeology, the volume profiles the Pharisees and explores the relationship between the Pharisees and the Judaic religious system foreshadowed by the library of Qumran. A great virtue of this study is that no attempt is made to homogenize the distinct pictures or reconstruct a singular account of the Pharisees; instead, by carefully considering the sources, the chapters allow different pictures of the Pharisees to stand side by side.
