The Literature of the Old Testament
"Remarkable....The best popular presentation of the subject yet published." -The Congregationalist and Christian World "It presents in concise and readable form the more important conclusions of modern Biblical criticism. Many who have hesitated at attempting to absorb the minutely applied erudition in such a work as Driver's 'Introduction to the Literature of the Old Testament' will welcome Professor Moore's briefer volume with delight." -New Outlook "After explaining the canon and indicating the high level of this national literature, Dr. Moore takes up the books in turn. The chapters are brief, but they present clearly the points one most needs to know as a preparation or incentive for fu...
The Apostle Paul in the Jewish Imagination
The Apostle Paul in the Jewish Imagination is a pioneering multidisciplinary examination of Jewish perspectives on Paul of Tarsus. Here, the views of individual Jewish theologians, religious leaders, and biblical scholars of the last 150 years, together with artistic, literary, philosophical, and psychoanalytical approaches, are set alongside popular cultural attitudes. Few Jews, historically speaking, have engaged with the first-century Apostle to the Gentiles. The modern period has witnessed a burgeoning interest in this topic, however, with treatments reflecting profound concerns about the nature of Jewish authenticity and the developing intercourse between Jews and Christians. In exploring these issues, Jewish commentators have presented Paul in a number of apparently contradictory ways. The Apostle Paul in the Jewish Imagination represents an important contribution to Jewish cultural studies and to the study of Jewish-Christian relations.

Ever since the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in caves near the site of Qumran in 1947, this mysterious cache of manuscripts has been associated with the Essenes, a "sect" configured as marginal and isolated. Scholarly consensus has held that an Essene library was hidden ahead of the Roman advance in 68 CE, when Qumran was partly destroyed. With much doubt now expressed about aspects of this view, The Essenes, the Scrolls and the Dead Sea systematically reviews the surviving historical sources, and supports an understanding of the Essenes as an influential legal society, at the centre of Judaean religious life, held in much esteem by many and protected by the Herodian dynasty, thus appear...
