From ancient times to the present day, utopian social ideas have made the unity of
humankind a central concern. In the face of the threats to civic peace and harmony
caused by misrule, factions, inequality, and moral weakness, philosophical and religious
traditions in antiquity gave considered attention to the attainment of oneness both
as an ideal and as an embodied practice. In this volume, scholars of ancient history,
early Judaism, and biblical studies come together to show that ideas of unity and
practices of oneness were grounded in larger conceptions of worldview, cosmic order,
and power, with theological ideas such as the oneness of God laying an important foundation.
In particular, contributors focus on how early Christians, with their inherited Jewish,
Greek, and Roman traditions, reinterpreted oneness in light of their new identity
as "members of Christ" and how they put it into practice
