Abstract	"Alexandria was the epicenter of Hellenic learning in the ancient Mediterranean world, yet little is known about how Christianity emerged in the city. M. David Litwa employs the Nag Hammadi codices and early Christian writings to demonstrate how the earliest followers of Jesus navigated Jewish traditions and developed distinctive identities"-- Provided by publisher.
