Jackson1st ed.Leiden ;Boston Brill20081 online resource (278 p.)Jewish and Christian perspectives series,1388-2074 ;v. 16Description based upon print version of record.90-04-16273-9 Includes bibliographical references (p. [227]-238) and indexes.Historical observations on the relationship between letter and spirit -- The prophet and the law in early Judaism and the New Testament -- The trials of Jesus and Jeremiah -- Testes singulares in early Jewish law and the New Testament -- Susanna and the singular history of singular witnesses -- The Jewish background to the prodigal son : an unresolved problem -- Risk-taking shepherds -- "Holier than thou"? : marriage and divorce in the scrolls, the New Testament and early Rabbinic sources.The texts of the New Testament have long been understood to require interpretation in the light of the Hebrew Bible, Qumran and other postbiblical literary and documentary sources. Conversely, they provide an invaluable source for the reconstruction of halakhah in the late Second Commonwealth period. These essays illustrate the complexity of the inter-relationships, and the methodological issues which arise: the “legal” content of the texts cannot be separated from the intertextualities of Jewish theology. The topics cover letter and spirit, prophecy and law, forgiveness, the accounts of Jesus’ “trial(s)”, the evidence required for legal and theological claims, shepherding images, disinheritance (the prodigal son), marriage and divorce.Jewish and Christian perspectives series ;v. 16.Jewish lawBiblical teachingJewish lawBiblical teaching.225.6/7Jackson Bernard S291529MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910974439603321Essays on Halakhah in the New Testament4539635UNINA
