Summary
The Minim (i.e., Heretics) is the nickname which was given by the Jewish leaders in the second century CE to Christians in the formative time of these two religions. Yaakov Yanki Teppler studies the identity of those Minim and lays a firm foundation for understanding the processes of separation between Judaism and Christianity in this stormy and fascinating period.
