' Tom Holmin's book Jesus and Jewish Covenant Thinking is a real step forward in the flourishing debate about how Jesus fitted in, and sometimes radically stood out against, the Jewish environment of his day. It is a major work of scholarship which must be taken seriously by other writers in this area.'<br>Tom Wright, Canon, Westminster Abbey.<br>' We sorely need an up-to-date treatment of Jesus and the Mosaic Law, and I believe Tom Holmin's Jesus and Jewish Covenant Thinking has supplied it. The book addresses in a serious and competent way the pressing issue of the stance of the historical Jesus vis--vis the Law in general and the various questions of halaka in particular. I hope the book is widely used and widely discussed. It makes a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate about Jesus the Jew.'<br>John P. Meier, Professor, Notre Dame University<br>
