At the same time, it acknowledges that examples of tolerance are significantly fewer in ancient sources than examples of intolerance and are often limited to insiders, while outsiders often met with contempt, or even outright violence. The essays take both perspectives seriously by analysing the complexity pertaining to these encounters. Religious concerns, ethnicity, gender and other social factors central to identity formation were often intertwined and they yielded different ways of drawing the limits of tolerance and intolerance. This book enhances our understanding of the formative centuries of Jewish and Christian religious traditions. It also brings the results of historical inquiry into dialogue with present-day questions of religious tolerance. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book contains contributions by Ismo Dunderberg, Carmen Palmer, Michael Labahn, Nina Nikki, Anna-Liisa Rafael, Sami Yli-Karjanmaa, Galit Hasan-Rokem \u0026amp; Israel Yuval, Paul Middleton, Outi Lehtipuu, Elizabeth Dowling, and Amy-Jill Levine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI Introduction: Outi Lehtipuu \u0026amp; Michael Labahn \u003cbr\u003eII Conditions of Tolerance \u003cbr\u003eFrom Conflict to Recognition: Rethinking a Scholarly Paradigm in the Study of Christian Origins (Ismo Dunderberg) \u003cbr\u003eMutable Ethnicity in the Dead Sea Scrolls: Intertwined Acts of Tolerance and Intolerance (Carmen Palmer) \u003cbr\u003eDer geliebte \"Feind\": Wahrnehmung des Anderen in Jesu Gebot der Feindesliebe und ihre Rezeption im Dokument Q - ein Beispiel antiker \"Toleranz\" und \"Anerkennung\"?
