This volume examines Jewish and Christian groups in the Mediterranean from roughly the mid-third century BCE to the third century CE and the strategies they employed to develop complex communal identities. It comprises revised papers presented in Jerusalem in October 2013 at the Hebrew University’s Scholion Center for Interdisciplinary Research in the Humanities and Jewish Studies. Twelve contributions bring literary and documentary texts, as well as theoretical frameworks, to bear on the topic.
Jews and Christians under the Roman Empire shared a unique sense of community. Set apart from their civic and cultic surroundings, both groups resisted complete assimilation into the dominant political and social structures. However, Jewish communities differed from their Christian counterparts in their overall patterns of response to the surrounding challenges. They exhibit diverse levels of integration into the civic fabric of the cities of the Empire and display contrary attitudes towards the creation of trans-local communal networks. The variety of local case studies examined in this volume offers an integrated image of the multiple factors, both internal and external, which determined the role of communal identity in creating a sense of belonging among Jews and Christians under Imperial constraints.
