He reads the works not only against their Jewish \"background\" but also as early Jewish literature. In doing so, he questions the traditional classification of Luke-Acts as a \"Greek\" or Gentile-Christian text. To support his assertions, Dr. Oliver's literary-historical investigation explores the question of Torah praxis in each book, citing evidence that suggests several ritual Jewish practices remained fixtures in the Jesus movement and that Jewish followers of Jesus played key roles in forming the ekklesia well into the first century CE.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIsaac W.
