Jewish-Christian Relations in Antiquity | 3 (3-0-0-0-0) |
This course will examine historically and religiously the symbiotic relationship between Jews and Christians from their origins. The course will critically re-examine the current Jewish-Christian scholarship on the issue of the "Parting of the Ways" 'i.e. separation between the two parties' by focussing on the complex and intricate relationship between Jews and Christians in antiquity, particularily with a focus on the Roman world. Prerequisites: 2nd year standing required |
