Dennis Martin's very helpful and detailed exposition of early Christian and
"high theological" understandings of the relationship between the "Old" and
"New" Testaments and the question of fulfilment vs. supercession are much
appreciated. But my point concerns the relationship between Jews and
Christians in the everyday world of medieval Europe. I very much doubt that
such fine distinctions as Dennis Martin makes were at the fingertips of
burgomasters, guildsmen and preachers.
