Review ~ International Review of Biblical Studies, vol 51,

Overall, Early Jewish and Christian Monotheism is a welcome
contribution to the field, and a welcome addition to the
student/scholar's library. Anyone who has read widely in early
Christology or Second Temple monotheism will have noticed just how
often the essays in this volume are cited in recent literature, and
with good reason, they all merit engagement in one way or another.
Those readers looking to examine a variety of explanations for the
early devotion given to Jesus will profit greatly by consulting
this volume.' —Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth
"Of interest to scholars, this series of essays by a variety of
noted authors concentrates on the issue of how the high Christology
of the New Testament writings that affirm in some way the divinity
of Jesus relates to traditional Jewish convictions of monotheism.
The leading section situates Jewish monotheism within the wider
Mediterranean world, and subsequent groupings deal directly with
the New Testament materials and with the wider implications of this
issue." - The Bible Today, Nov/Dec 2005

'...this rich collection of essays is not just important for New
Testament exegesis and theoology but also offers a lot of impulses
for systematic theology.' Volume 116, Number 3
