This book is a combination of four overlapping areas of research and interest: New Testament studies, Jewish studies, hermeneutics, and homiletics. It could be described as a handbook with hermeneutical strategies for those seeking to avoid the pitfalls of various anti-Jewish readings of the New Testament. After a comprehensive introductory chapter, addressing four challenges of particular importance (how Pharisees, Jews, the Law, and the new covenant are presented), thirty key passages in the New Testament are analyzed, and several interpretations of each and one of these passages are discussed.
