Journal of Greco-Roman Christianity and Judaism 1 (2000) Edited by Stanley E. Porter, Matthew Brook O'Donnell, Wendy J. Porter
|
This is the first volume of the hard-copy edition of a journal that has been published online (www.macdiv.ca/jgrchj) since 2000. Volume 1 is for 2000, Volume 2 will be for 2001–2004, and Volume 3 for 2005. As they appear, the hard-copy editions will replace the online materials.
The scope of JGRChJ is the texts, language and cultures of the Graeco-Roman world of early Christianity and Judaism. The papers published in JGRChJ are designed to pay special attention to the ‘larger picture’ of politics, culture, religion and language, engaging as well with modern theoretical approaches.
