| description | This article traces how early Christian thinkers (including Irenaeus, Eusebius, Epiphanius, and
Jerome) conceptualised ‘Jewishness’ in bibliographic terms. The material that early Christian
sources associate with the Gospel according to the Hebrews exhibits a substantial textual
relationship to the Gospel according to Matthew. The distinction emerges within a fourth- and
fifth-century CE heresiological project of bibliographic categorisation that seeks to
differentiate Jewish and Christian books and readers. Bibliography is a way of distinguishing
reading communities and thereby advances the late ancient rhetorical project known as the
parting of the ways between Judaism and Christianity. |
