The metaphor of bread and its cognitive concept implicitly connect to Israel's indigenous sense of identity and religious imagination, while integrating the socio-religious context and the identity of Matthean community through the metaphoric action: \u003ci\u003ebreaking of bread\u003c\/i\u003e. While using this metaphor as a narrative strategy, Matthew not only keeps the Jewish indigenous socio-religious heritage but also breaks down multiple boundaries of religion, ethnicity, gender, class, and the false prejudice in order to establish an alternative identity and ideological vision. From this perspective, this book presents how the Matthean \u003ci\u003ebread\u003c\/i\u003e functions to reveal the identity of Matthew's community \u003ci\u003ein-between\u003c\/i\u003e for\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents: The Purpose of the Project – Bread\/Meals in Second Temple Judaism and Relevant – The Metaphor of Bread in Feeding Narratives and Matthean Community – The Metaphor of Bread toward All Nations: New Covenant and Ideology in Hybridity.","brand":"Peter Lang Publishing Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51039577407831,"sku":"9781433127687","price":63.94,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781433127687.jpg?v=1750944149","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-breaking-of-bread-and-the-breaking-of-boundaries-9781433127687","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
