The present book brings together the contributions of the foremost specialists on the relationship of the New Testament and Rabbinic Literature. It contains the proceedings of a Symposium held at the K.U.Leuven in January 2006. The contributors; from different European countries as well as from Israel; present in detail the history of rabbinical scholarship by Christian scholars and deal with the main issues in the study of rabbinic materials. As could be expected; much attention is given to halakhic issues; but literary questions in Midrash; Targum and Mystical Literature are also dealt with. All contributions are in English; and the volume is completed with a very large "cumulative bibliography" which will enhance its usefulness.
