Reviews

"In a thorough and accessible monograph, Donald H. Carlson discusses the origins, logic and justification of the so-called false pericopes theory as found in the Pseudo-Clementine Homilies. This is an interesting and helpful contribution both to our understanding of evolving hermeneutical theories among early Christians and the extent to which such theories emerged from a wider Jewish, pagan, as well as Christian, world." James Carleton Paget University of Cambridge "Jewish-Christian Interpretation of the Pentateuch illumines well late antique approaches to reading Scripture and offers a timely examination of the Pseudo-Clementine Homilies, a work that every scholar of early Christianity should know. Donald Carlson is to be commended for this fascinating study." Kelley CoblentzBautch St. Edward's University "Carlson's work is a fresh exploration of one of the most curious aspects of the Pseudo-Clementine Homilies, namely its assumption that falsehoods exist within the Jewish Scripture. Understanding the theological layers of this assumption is key to unlocking this complex text as well as further illuminating the various ways Christians interpreted the Bible. Carlson's insightful analysis offers much-needed clarification on a cryptic subject." Kevin Vaccarella John Tyler Community College
