520    "The third and final installment of James Dunn's 
       magisterial history of Christian origins through 190 C.E.,
       Neither Jew nor Greek: A Contested Identity covers the 
       period after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 C.E. 
       through the second century, when the still-new Jesus 
       movement firmed up its distinctive identity markers and 
       the structures on which it would establish its growing 
       appeal in the following decades and centuries. Dunn 
       examines in depth the major factors that shaped first-
       generation Christianity and beyond, exploring the parting 
       of the ways between Christianity and Judaism, the 
       Hellenization of Christianity, and responses to 
       Gnosticism. He mines all the first- and second-century 
       sources, including the New Testament Gospels, New 
       Testament apocrypha, and such church fathers as Ignatius, 
       Justin Martyr, and Irenaeus, showing how the Jesus 
       tradition and the figures of James, Paul, Peter, and John 
       were still esteemed influences but were also the subject 
       of intense controversy as the early church wrestled with 
       its evolving identity. Comprehensively covering an 
       important, complex era in Christianity that is often 
       overlooked, this volume is a landmark contribution to the 
       field."--|cProvided by Freading.
