We are thinking here, as Wilson has analysed Longenecker's definition, of ‘a historical entity with a definite history’ (p. 271). Wilson seems to support our proposed definition when he goes on to say, ‘It might make for clarity if we were to restrict the term Jewish Christianity more closely to the historical phenomenon, recognising at the same time that Paul and Pauline Christianity represent one particular off-shoot, still marked at many points by the original Jewish Christian character but developing in its own way’ (p. 271).
