'Render unto Caesar': Religious and Political Loyalty in Palestine

First published in 1940, this book re-examines Christ's admonition to 'render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's'. Loewe places the incident in its rabbinical and historical context in order to explain fully the impact of Christ's statement and its potential application to modern relations between individuals and the state. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in New Testament theology or the background to the historical Christ.
