New Testament Moses: Christian Perceptions Of Moses & Israel In The Setting Of Jewish Religion (Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen Zum Neuen Testament, No. 2)

This is a study of the NT witness to how Jews and Jewish Christians perceived the relationship of Moses with Israel and with the Jewish people. This is a narrowly tailored study, focusing specifically on that relationship without treating Moses in the New Testament comprehensively. The study consults ancient writings and historical material to situate the NT Moses in a larger milieu of Jewish thought. It contributes both to the knowledge of ancient Judaism and the to illumination of NT religion and theology, especially Christology.
