Synopsis
Birth of a world faith: a clear, careful look at Christianity's early years.
This volume traces the origins of the Christian movement, from its Jewish roots through the first centuries of growth and conflict. It focuses on how beliefs formed, how communities organized, and how the faith spread beyond its earliest circles.
This edition surveys key groups, ideas, and turning points—from Nazarenes and Ebionites to the spreading influence of Paul and the shifting understanding of Jesus in a Hellenic world. It presents a thoughtful, documentary-style view of how early Christians navigated tradition, doctrine, and empire without sacrificing clarity for depth.
- Origins and practices of Nazarenes and Ebionites, and their relation to early Judaism.
- How the image of Jesus and the concept of the Word evolved in early Christianity.
- The spread of Christian communities after Jerusalem’s fall and the role of key figures.
- How philosophy and culture helped shape early Christian thought and disputes.
Ideal for readers of religious history who want a rigorous, accessible overview of Christianity’s beginnings.
