1977 * Sanders.jpg

Ed Parish Sanders, Paul and Palestinian Judaism: A Comparison of Patterns of Religion (Philadelphia, PA: Fortress Press 1977; and London: SCM Press, 1977).

<Paul and Palestinian Judaism compares Judaism, understood on its own terms, with Paul, understood on his own terms. Sanders aims to: Consider methodologically how to compare two (or more) related but different religions destroy the view of Rabinic Judaism which is still prevalent in much, perhaps most, New Testament scholarship establish a different view of Rabbinic Judaism argue a case concerning Palestinian Judaism as a whole argue for a certain understanding of Paul carry out a comparison of Paul and Palestinian JudaismThis volume makes a contribution not only to the understanding of Paul and his relationship to Judaism, but also to the study of Judaism itself.>--Publisher description.

In this work Sanders seeks to compare, methodologically, two different systems of religion— namely Palestinian Judaism and Paul— on their own terms. His approach is to analyze the surviving literature for each respective religious system, draw conclusions based on a close reading of that literature, and then compare the two with one another. Throughout the comparative study, Sanders first debunks the predominant opinion of New Testament Scholars of his day that Judaism at the time of Jesus had degraded to a legalistic form of works-righteousness, and proposes instead, that Palestinian Judaism from 200 B.C.E. to 200 A.D. can be understand as “Covenantal Nomism.” After establishing this perspective, Sanders turns to Paul’s religious system and shows that, despite there being several points of convergence between Paul and Palestinian Judaism, since Paul denies the efficacy of the Jewish covenant for salvation he in essence rejects Covental Nomism. Thus Sanders concludes that Paul represents an entirely different form of religion that does not have a clear antecedent, but rather is a system that is focused on the meaning of the life and death of Jesus Christ. – Deborah Forger, University of Michigan
