Kurzfassung:
"The essays in this volume take as their theme the reception of Jewish traditions in early Christianity, and the ways in which the meaning of these traditions changed as they were put to work in new contexts and for new social ends. The contributors places emphasis on the internal variety and malleability of these traditions, which underwent continual processes of change within Judaism, and on reception as an active, strategic, and interested process. All the essays in this volume seek to bring out how acts of reception contribute to the social formation of early Christianity, in its social imagination (its speech and thought about itself) or in its social practices, or both. The volume challenges static notions of tradition and passive ideas of reception , stressing creativity and the significance of strong readings of tradition. It thus complicates standard narratives of the parting of the ways between Christianity and Judaism , showing how even claims to continuity were bound to make the same different."--
