Contents Introduction -- Fallacies in scholarly consensus -- Jesus, the Jews and the worship of God -- Jesus, the Sabbath and circumcision -- Jesus, the Jews and Moses -- Believing Jews, Abraham and the devil -- Synthesis: the Johannine Christians, the Jews and Jewishness.
Summary 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.
