Jewish Law from Jesus to the Mishnah

“Jewish Law from Jesus to the Mishnah is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of Jewish law, in particular the laws of purity and the history of the Pharisees. A classic, excelling in erudition, analysis, and common sense.”

Judaism

World Religions

“Students of ancient Judaism, rejoice! Fortress Press is bringing back into print this essential volume of E. P. Sanders, long out of print. Judaism Practice and Belief is essential reading for anyone interested in the observances, practices, and beliefs of Jews in the century before the destruction of the temple in 70 CE.”

Paul and Palestinian Judaism

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“E.P. Sanders’s Paul and Palestinian Judaism is a modern classic. It changed the way we look at Paul and the way we look at ancient Judaism. Forty years later, it is still worth reading and worth arguing about.”
