  • More about Law and Religion: Essays on the Place of the Law in Israel and Early Christianity

The place of the Law and its relationship to religious observance and faith is a contested topic in the study of both the Old and New Testaments. The Erhardt Seminar group's essays explore this debate, focusing on the Law's place in Israelite religion, the Jesus tradition, and Paul and the Apostolic tradition. They also address the contemporary challenge to the conventional picture of Jesus and the Law, the attitude of Paul, and post-Pauline developments.

Format: Hardback
Length: 228 pages

Publisher: James Clarke & Co Ltd


The place of the Law and its relationship to religious observance and faith is a contentious issue in the study of both the Old and New Testaments. In Law and Religion, members of the Erhardt Seminar group delve into the debate, exploring key topics and making fresh contributions to the field. Their essays are organized into three sections, each focusing on the Law's place in Israelite religion, the Jesus tradition, and the Paul and Apostolic traditions. Thus, the foundation of the connection between law and religion in ancient Israel is examined, along with the profound influence of the Deuteronomic reform and the radical new understanding of the later development in Judaism of the New Testament Period. Moreover, the contemporary challenge to the conventional picture of Jesus and the Law is addressed, the attitude of Paul is shown in a new light, and post-Pauline developments are explored. Readers will find in this symposium a diverse range of opinions on a debate that spans the various disciplines within Biblical studies.
