Book Synopsis Judaism and the Gentiles by : Terence L. Donaldson

Download or read book Judaism and the Gentiles written by Terence L. Donaldson and published by Baylor University Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Second-Temple period non-Jews were attracted to Judaism's communal life, religious observance and theological imagination. On the Jewish side, this was matched by the development of several discrete "patterns of universalism"-ways in which Jews were able to conceive of a positive place for Gentiles within their symbolic world. In this book Terence Donaldson collects and comments on all of the texts (to the end of the second Jewish rebellion in 135 CE) that deal with Gentile sympathizers, proselytes, ethical monotheists and participants in end-time redemption. In impressive detail, Donaldson identifies, defines, and describes these "patterns of universalism."
