Kommentar

That Jesus was a Jew of the first century is now a widely accepted insight, by both Jews and Christians. The issue is different when it comes to Paul, the apostle of the nation. The perceptions of Paul are controversial and ambiguous. He is seen as the first Christian theologian, the so-called real founder of Christendom,  the one who distorted or  the message of Jesus, or brought it to its full potential, left Judaism, or even attacked it. Such images have been dominating Christian perceptions and in many ways also Jewish views of the apostle. Nevertheless, already in the 19th century there have been views which saw him as part of Jewish tradition, as a kind of proto-rabbinic thinker. In this seminar we will discuss examplary texts of Jewish scholars who have written about Paul, from the 19th century until today in their respective contexts and the implications of these perceptions for Jewish-Christian relations.
