Dunn JC 1992James D. G. Dunn, ed. Jews and Christians: the Parting of the Ways, A.D.70-135 (Second Durham-Tübingen Research Symposium on Earliest Christianity and Judaism; Grand Rapids: W. B. Eerdmans, 1992).
This edited volume is a compilation of the papers delivered and discussed at the second Durham-Tübingen Research Symposium on Earliest Christianity and Judaism, which convened at the University of Durham in September 1989.
The main issue for discussion seeks to answer the following question:
"how Christianity, instead of remaining a mere form of Judaism...asserted itself as a separate, independent principle, broke loose from it, and took its stand as a new enfranchised form of religious thought and life, essentially different from all the national peculiarities of Judaism" (F.C.Baur, Paul the Apostle of Jesus Christ, vii).
This work helps to clarify some of the issues involved in better understanding this greater concern, but it also shows why there is also no simple or definitive answer to this parting of the ways by the religions of Judaism and Christianity.
