One of the intriguing and understudied topics here is the nature of Syriac Christianity's autonomous identity in late antiquity. This question is intrinsically connected to its genesis from an indigenous Christian Aramaic background as well as its interaction with the neighboring Jewish milieu. This volume unearthes some of the idiosyncracies -- mainly pertaining to trinitarian theology, christology and hermeneutics -- to be found in early Syriac literature before the onslaught of Greek hegemony. The idiosyncrasies analyzed here offer new insights into the nature of that peculiar brand of early Christianity, confirming a model of an indigenous early Syriac tradition gradually entering into a dynamic interaction with Greek influence. 410 0$aJerusalem studies in religion and culture ;$vv. 11. 606 $aSyrian churches$xDoctrines$xHistory 606 $aChristian literature, Early$xSyriac authors$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aSyrian churches$xDoctrines$xHistory. 615 0$aChristian literature, Early$xSyriac authors$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a275.61/01 700 $aRuzer$b Serge$01629653 701 $aKofsky$b Arieh$0675129 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820955303321 996 $aSyriac idiosyncrasies$94064390 997 $aUNINA
