There's not a lot that can be said about Nazarene Jewish Christianity of the first few centuries (documentation is pretty sparse), but this book gives a pretty comprehensive look at what we can know. One of Pritz's key ideas is that the early church fathers often confused the Ebionites with the Nazarenes (a type of mistake we often make about other people groups) and grouped them both under the title Ebionite. With that in mind, Pritz digs into these texts to see if he can separate out those elements that belong to the Nazarene sect from those that are more Ebionite.
In sum, if you have an interest in learning more about the Nazarenes of the early church, this short book is a good study.
