Paul himself was a Jew, and he formulated his ideas that comprise the bedrock of Christian theology in language, terminology, and modes of expression deeply embedded in Jewish Scripture and tradition. Paul’s emergence as an apostle to the Gentiles involved him in ongoing discussion and often bitter dispute with the Jewish founders of the original Jesus-believing community, leading him to assert his own doctrine by negating their beliefs, and to offer ostensibly negative judgments of Jews, Judaism, and the Law of Moses. Paul’s seemingly anti-Jewish pronouncements figure prominently in heated debates among Pauline scholars, and over the past decades the New Perspective on Paul, which narrows the gap between Paul’s own “Christianity” and the first-century Judaism that spawned him, has become an unavoidable issue for investigators of early Christianity.This session will consider various interpretations of Pauline doctrine – and of his Epistle to the Romans above all – concerning Jews and Judaism in late medieval and early modern Christian Europe. All four papers will explore Christian views of the Jewish role in the divine economy of salvation: their election in the past, their role at present, and their destiny at the end of days. In each of the analyzed four cases, we shall highlight readings of Paul that sought somehow to overcome the gaps and hostilities dividing Jews and Christians over the centuries.
