Reviews

Through an incisive and critical analysis of the history of the concept of 'Jewish Christianity,' Matt Jackson-McCabe shows persuasively how abandoning the concept enables different voices and social formations to be heard and mapped in their own terms. -Judith Lieu, University of Cambridge Future investigations under the rubric of 'Jewish Christianity' will be unable to avoid reckoning with the argument of this volume, namely that the category 'Jewish Christianity' inevitably encodes a Christian metaphysics of Christianity itself. -John W. Marshall, University of Toronto The term 'Jewish Christianity' has always been problematic. This book is a provocative and stimulating plea for an abandoning of the term, in spite of its long history of study, and is sure to engender discussion and reassessment. -James Carleton Paget, University of Cambridge In this excellent study, internationally renowned scholar Matt Jackson-McCabe has given us an essential tool for a deeper understanding of Christian origins. An indispensable resource and a must read for anyone interested in Jewish-Christian relations. -Anders Runesson, University of Oslo
