But this has been a profoundly textual task, relying on the writings of rabbis, bishops, and other text-producing elites to map the terrain of the \"parting.\" This book takes up the question of the divergence of Judaism and Christianity in terms of material--the \u003ci\u003estuff\u003c\/i\u003e made, used, and left behind by the persons that lived in and between these religions as they were developing. Considering the glass, clay, stone, paint, vellum, and papyrus of ancient Jews and Christians, this book maps the \"parting\" in new ways, and argues for a greater role for material and materialism in our reconstructions of the past. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eric C.
