Sim's thought provoking work builds upon the contributions of Overman and Saldarini, who view the Gospel of Matthew as a Jewish text representative of "Christian Judaism" rather than as a text penned by a community already separated from "Christianity." Most provocative is Sim's thesis that Matthew was written by a Torah observant group which was opposed to Paul's allegedly law-free Gospel. Sim even claims that Matthew did not actively engage in a Gentile mission and that all of the Gentile converts in his community had fully embraced Torah praxis (including circumcision).--Isaac W.

The Gospel of Matthew and Christian Judaism (1998) is a book by David C. Sim.

Abstract

Sim's thought provoking work builds upon the contributions of Overman and Saldarini, who view the Gospel of Matthew as a Jewish text representative of "Christian Judaism" rather than as a text penned by a community already separated from "Christianity." Most provocative is Sim's thesis that Matthew was written by a Torah observant group which was opposed to Paul's allegedly law-free Gospel. Sim even claims that Matthew did not actively engage in a Gentile mission and that all of the Gentile converts in his community had fully embraced Torah praxis (including circumcision).--Isaac W. Oliver
