Jesus, the Sabbath, and the Jewish Debate: Healing on the Sabbath in the 1st and 2nd Century CE: Healing on the Sabbath in the 1st and 2nd Centuries CE (The Library of New Testament Studies) - Hardcover
The claim that Jesus was criticised by the Pharisees for performing cures on the Sabbath has been continuously repeated for almost 2,000 years. But a meticulous, unprejudiced evaluation of the relevant gospel texts shows that the historical Jesus was never criticised by historical Pharisees for performing Sabbath cures. In fact, Jesus and the Pharisees were in complete agreement for the need for cures on the Sabbath day. It is also clear that the Sabbath healing events in the gospels have preserved a significant part of the history of the early Jewish debate which sought to resolve the apparent conflict between the demands of Jewish law, and the performance of deeds of healing and/or saving life. This debate, from its Maccabean origins through to the end of the second century CE, is the subject of this book. The story of the debate has escaped the attention of historians partly because it relies on the evidence of both the early postbiblical Jewish texts and the Christian gospels, which are not generally studied together.

Review:
"[Collins] has attempted to fill certain lacunae in the field (the exact interrelationship between Gospel and rabbinic materials and also the precise history of the Jewish materials themselves). The procedure and results are seemingly groundbreaking. The extensive collection of texts alone--in their primary languages, particularly Hebrew, accompanied by English translations--is a substantial contribution." -F. Stanley Jones, California State University Long Beach, USA, The Catholic Biblical Quarterly
About the Author:
Dr Nina Collins lectured on Judaism and Modern and Classical Hebrew at the University of Leeds. Her publications include The Library in Alexandria and the Bible in Greek (Brill, Netherlands, 2000)

But a meticulous, unprejudiced evaluation of the relevant gospel texts shows that the historical Jesus was never criticised by historical Pharisees for performing Sabbath cures. In fact, Jesus and the Pharisees were in complete agreement for the need for cures on the Sabbath day.

The story of the debate has escaped the attention of historians partly because it relies on the evidence of both the early postbiblical Jewish texts and the Christian gospels, which are not generally studied together. Based on a meticulous textual analysis of the Sabbath events in the gospels and on the relevant material in the early rabbinic texts, this title traces the history of the process by which Jewish law accommodated such acts. It considers evidence preserved in the gospels that deals with the contemporary Jewish debate on healing on the Sabbath.
