Abstract

The Seductiveness of Jewish Myth offers a panorama of diverse definitions of myth, understandings of Judaism, and competing evaluations of the "mythic" element in religion. The contributors focus on the problem of defining myth as a category in religious studies, examine modern religion and the role of myth in a "secularized" world, and look at specific cases of Jewish myth from biblical through modern times.

Abstract

This volume deals with the role of saints and exemplary individuals in Judaism and Christianity. Although sharing the Hebrew Bible and recognizing the same Biblical figures there, both religions have developed widely divergent perspectives upon the significance of these figures, although there are occasional common motifs and themes. Moreover, even the contrasting themes betray an underlying interaction between both religions as is clear from the contributions on, for example, Melchizedek, Elijah, the Desert Fathers, Rabbis on clothing, the Apostle Peter in Jewish tradition, the Maccabees in Christian tradition and the Biblical examples in Saint Antony the Hermit. The book examines Jewish and Christian perspectives upon saints and role models from the Biblical period to the present time. It will be of special importance to scholars and general readers interested in an interdisciplinary approach to theology, rabbinics, history, art history and much more.

Abstract

The ‘Exegetical Encounter between Jews and Christians in Late Antiquity’ is a collection of essays examining the relationship between Jewish and Christian biblical commentators. The contributions focus on analysis of interpretations of the book of Genesis, a text which has considerable importance in both Christian and Jewish tradition. The essays cover a wide range of Jewish and Christian literature, including primarily rabbinic and patristic sources, but also apocrypha, pseudepigrapha, Philo, Josephus and Gnostic texts. In bringing together the studies of a variety of eminent scholars on the topic of ‘Exegetical Encounter’, the book presents the latest research on the topic and illuminates a variety of original approaches to analysis of exegetical contacts between the two sets of religious groups. The volume is significant for the light it sheds on the history of relations between Jews and Christians in Late Antiquity.

Abstract

Seitdem im Jahr 1822 der Begriff von einer "Wissenschaft des Judentums" erstmals verwendet wurde, bezeichnet er die wissenschaftliche Beschäftigung von Juden mit allen Bereichen des jüdischen Lebens und der jüdischen Geschichte bis zur Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Ein Aspekt, der in der wissenschaftlichen Betrachtung vernachlässigt wurde, ist die Beschäftigung jüdischer Wissenschaftler mit dem Christentum.Der vorliegende Sammelband thematisiert, wie ausgewählte Autoren der Wissenschaft des Judentums sich mit verschiedenen Aspekten des Christentums auseinandergesetzt haben und zeigt, welche Rückwirkungen dies auf die Etablierung ihres Judentums hatte.Dabei wird exemplarisch in zwei Richtungen gearbeitet. Zum einen wird historisch gefragt, warum und auf welche Weise ausgewählte Vertreter der Wissenschaft des Judentums Untersuchungen zum Christentum durchgeführt haben. Zum anderen lässt sich auch in systematischer Hinsicht eine konstitutive Bedeutung des Christentums für die Konturierung des eigenen, jüdischen Standpunkts erkennen.
