Jesus the Pharisee, Paperback / softback Book

Jesus the Pharisee Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In this text, Hyam Maccoby controversially suggests that Jesus was not only friendly to the Pharisees, but was actually a member of their group.

He aims to throw new light on the relationship between Jesus and John the Baptist, exploring the political aspect of their movements and their adherence to the Torah.

He looks at evidence from the rabbinic sources to show a strong affinity between Jesus and the Pharisees and discusses previously misunderstood or ignored stories about Jesus found in the Talmud.

The book rehabilitates the Pharisees and uses the New Testament to show that there is continuity between Pharisaism and rabbinism.

It should prove influential in the strategy to combat anti-Semitism.
