| Zusammenfassung: | This book tackles a central problem of comparative religious history: proselytizing by Jews and pagans in the ancient world, and the origins of missions in the early Church. Why did some individuals in the first four centuries of the Christian era believe it desirable to persuade outsiders to join their religious group, while others did not? In this book, the author offers a new hypothesis about the origins of Christian proselytizing, arguing that mission is not an inherent religious instinct, that in antiquity it was found only sporadically among Jews and pagans, and that even Christians rarely stressed its importance in the early centuries Much of the book focusses on the history of Judaism in late antiquity. Dr Goodman makes a detailed and radical re-evaluation of the evidence for Jewish missionary attitudes in the late Second Temple and Talmudic periods, questioning many commonly held assumptions, in particular the view that Jews proselytized energetically in the first century CE. This leads him on to take issue with the common notion that the early Christian mission to the gentiles imitated or competed with contemporary Jews. Finally, the author puts forward some novel suggestions as to how the Jewish background to Christianity may nonetheless have contributed to the enthusiastic adoption of universal proselytizing by some followers of Jesus in the apostolic age |

Clarendon Press 1994 XIV, 194 S. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier This book tackles a central problem of comparative religious history: proselytizing by Jews and pagans in the ancient world, and the origins of missions in the early Church. Why did some individuals in the first four centuries of the Christian era believe it desirable to persuade outsiders to join their religious group, while others did not? In this book, the author offers a new hypothesis about the origins of Christian proselytizing, arguing that mission is not an inherent religious instinct, that in antiquity it was found only sporadically among Jews and pagans, and that even Christians rarely stressed its importance in the early centuries Much of the book focusses on the history of Judaism in late antiquity. Dr Goodman makes a detailed and radical re-evaluation of the evidence for Jewish missionary attitudes in the late Second Temple and Talmudic periods, questioning many commonly held assumptions, in particular the view that Jews proselytized energetically in the first century CE. This leads him on to take issue with the common notion that the early Christian mission to the gentiles imitated or competed with contemporary Jews. Finally, the author puts forward some novel suggestions as to how the Jewish background to Christianity may nonetheless have contributed to the enthusiastic adoption of universal proselytizing by some followers of Jesus in the apostolic age Geschichte 30-500 gnd rswk-swf Kirchengeschichte 30-400 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 10-425 gnd rswk-swf Proselyten Christendom gtt Christentum Geschichte Jodendom gtt Judentum Proselitisme gtt Romeinse oudheid gtt Zending gtt Judaism History Talmudic period, 10-425 Missions History Early church, ca.30-600 Proselytizing Judaism History Judentum (DE-588)4114087-4 gnd rswk-swf Frühchristentum (DE-588)4129954-1 gnd rswk-swf Mission (DE-588)4039567-4 gnd rswk-swf Bekehrung (DE-588)4005371-4 gnd rswk-swf Proselyt (DE-588)4175965-5 gnd rswk-swf Römisches Reich Fremde Religionen im römischen Reich (DE-2581)TH000006606 gbd Jüdische Geschichte, römische Kaiserzeit (DE-2581)TH000003726 gbd Proselyten (DE-2581)TH000003746 gbd Religion der Juden (DE-2581)TH000006551 gbd Proselyt (DE-588)4175965-5 s Geschichte 10-425 z DE-604 Mission (DE-588)4039567-4 s Geschichte 30-500 z Frühchristentum (DE-588)4129954-1 s Judentum (DE-588)4114087-4 s DE-188 Kirchengeschichte 30-400 z Bekehrung (DE-588)4005371-4 s |
