Summary: | In this erudite undertaking, and notwithstanding the disconcerting quantity of editorial slip-ups, David Stark unpacks the hermeneutical paradigms (largely presupposed) which were current within Second Temple Judaism and early Christianity. As the subtitle reveals, the Yahadic manuscripts and Paul's letter to the Romans are taken as particular cases in point for each respective constituency. How did the Yahad and Paul regard that which they recognised as the scriptures in light of the newly-encountered key-figure? A number of pertinent prolegomena are addressed in fairly even-handed measure (copious footnotes involved) within the first chapter of the work. Chapter 2 then looks at how Qumran's Yahadic texts view the Righteous Teacher (or, more traditionally, the Teacher of Righteousness) while, in its turn, the third chapter reviews Paul's Romans' take on Jesus of Nazareth. |
