  • Why the Jews Rejected Jesus

    The Turning Point in Western History

    de David Klinghoffer ...

The legal status and security of Jews—often their very lives—depended on the answer.In WHY THE JEWS ... Leer más

  • Losing the Temple and Recovering the Future

    An Analysis of 4 Ezra

    de Hindy Najman ...
    This book explores the Jewish community's response to the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE. The focus is 4 Ezra, a text that reboots the past by imaginatively recasting textual and interpretive traditions. Instead of rebuilding the Temple, as Ezra does in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah, the Ezra portrayed in 4 Ezra argues with an angel about the mystery of God's plan and re-gives Israel ... Leer más
