Abstract

Interdisciplinary Approaches to Early Christian Identity A Review Article Bengt Holmberg (Hrsg.), Exploring Early Christian Identity (WUNT 226), Tübingen (Mohr Siebeck) 2008, VIII u. 205 S., Ln. EUR 64,-; ISBN 978-3-16-149674-5. Bengt Holmberg/Mikael Wmninge (Hrsg.), Identity Fonnation in the New Testament (WUNT 227), Tübingen (Mohr Sieb eck) 2008, xn u. 341 S., Ln. EUR 89,-; ISBN 978-3-16-149687-5. The study of Christian identity in the first century is a relatively recent aspect of the debate about Christian origins. Early in the twentieth century, this debate focused on the origin of various beliefs of the early Christ-movement. This one-sided focus on ideas led to later sociological and anthropological studies that focused more exclusively on societal patterns and developments. In some ways, historical criti­ cism became identified with these sociological concerns, while beliefs and theology were dismissed as ideology.
