- Origin, Jewishness, History of doctrines, History
Re-creating the world of Jesus Christ, a provocative new study looks at how a young Jewish rabbi has been transformed into the god of a religion he would never have recognized, examining the rivalry between two points of view--one informed by the teachings of Matthew, one by the vision of Paul--in a study that reveals the differences between Christianity and Judaism, as well as the origins of one of the world's great religions.
