Strikingly antithetical to John's basic message, this source originated from an anti-Christian tradition promulgated by the Pharisees, the powerful and dogmatic teachers of Jewish law. The aims of this Pharisaic tradition, argues Watson, included discrediting Jesus as the Messiah, minimizing his historical importance, and justifying the Jewish authorities' role in his death. \u003ci\u003eJesus and the Jews\u003c\/i\u003e joins three other works by Watson--\u003ci\u003eThe Trial of Jesus\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eJesus and the Law\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eJesus: A Profile\u003c\/i\u003e--to examine the early dynamism of western religion through refocused attention on biblical texts and other historical sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 178\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 01, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42597376327776,"sku":"9780820341514","price":55.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/bmtVT2dIRlFXOVV2UGRpVzdpeVZMQT09.webp?v=1771761284","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/jesus-and-the-jews-the-pharisaic-tradition-in-john-paperback-1","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
