Bücher von James M. Scott

N. T. Wright is well known for his view that the majority of Second Temple Jews saw themselves as living within an ongoing exile. This book engages a lively conversation with this idea, beginning with a lengthy thesis from Wright, responses from eleven New Testament scholars, and a concluding essay from Wright responding to his interlocutors.

In this book, James M. Scott argues that there is an essential continuity between the letter to the Galatians and Paul's Jewish past, and that Paul uses the Epistle of Enoch (1 Enoch 92-105) as a literary model for his own letter.

This 2002 book focuses on a particular Old Testament pseudepigraphon - the Book of Jubilees, the revelation of an angel to Moses announcing the expectation of a messiah from Judah. It takes an interdisciplinary approach based on detailed analysis of primary sources and explores the neglected topic of ancient geographical conceptions.
