Description

In these two studies, the author deals with the hermeneutics of ancient Christianity and the importance of the biblical canon in the culture of the Roman imperial period. In the first contribution, the use of the Bible by Christians is described as a "hermeneutical revolution" and compared at this point with rabbinic Judaism. The second contribution is concerned with the idea of the "heavenly Jerusalem".
