Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
The book suggests that John?s portrayal of the Jews is not a response to Jewish persecution of early Christians. It proposes instead that the exclusive faith in Jesus led the Johannine Christians to abandon some basic markers of Jewish identity.
MoreLong description:
This book challenges current scholarly consensus concerning John?s references to the Jews in two ways. First, the author suggests that John?s portrayal of the Jews cannot be understood as a response to the violent policy of John?s opponents. Second, the author claims that John?s portrayal of Jewishness is much more ambivalent than is often claimed today.
The first part of the book offers a detailed criticism on the so called two-level reading strategy which claims that John?s references to the Jews emerge from the conflict with rabbinic Judaism. The second part examines in detail John?s relationship to some basic markers of Jewishness.
The book contributes to the ongoing discussion of anti-Judaism in John and efforts to understand John?s historical setting.
'This is an excellent study adding significantly to our knowledge of the first-century religious world and the place of John?s Gospel in this world. As is customary in Brill publications, the book concludes with an extensive bibliography, an index of authors cited, and an index of primary sources.'
Mary L. Coloe, Review of Biblical Literature, 2007.
