Jewish Christians in Puritan England, Hardback Book

Jewish Christians in Puritan England Hardback

Hardback

Description

In the seventeenth century, in England, a remarkable number of small religiousmovements began adopting demonstratively Jewish ritual practices.

They werelabelled by their contemporaries as Judaizers.

Why did this happen? Was it anexcrescence of over-exuberant biblicism? Was it a by-product of the Protestantapocalyptic tradition?

Was it a response to the changing status of the Jews in Europe?In Jewish Christians in Puritan England, Aidan Cottrell-Boyce argues that PuritanJudaizing was in fact an expression of another aspect of the Puritan experience: theneed to be recognized as a 'singular,' positively distinctive, and Godly minority.
