Abstract:
States that to conceptualize relations between ancient Jews and Christians in terms of a "parting of the ways" is to misconstrue the social and intellectual history of Judaism, of Christianity, and of majority Mediterranean culture at least up through the seventh century, and possibly beyond. Discusses early Christian "contra Iudaeos" literature, which created and spread this misconception. Elaborates on the vibrant Jewish communities in the Mediterranean diaspora, where the Jews lived and thrived alongside both pagans and Christians.
