Klappentext zu „Jewish-Christian Encounters over the Centuries “
The 19 essays of this book are exceptional in that, together, they cover the entire span of relations between Jews and Christians from the time of Jesus to the present. This lengthy period and complex subject required many experts and specialists, many of whom are famous in their fields. They have, however, created works of synthesis written in non-technical language and designed largely for the interested general reader and non-specialist as well as for students seeking to come to an understanding of one of the great issues of our time.Some of the themes highlighted in this book are: Judaism and Christianity in light of the Dead Sea Scrolls; Christian theory and practice towards the Jews from the Church Fathers through the Reformation; Judaism as interpreted in German biblical scholarship; modern antisemitism and philosemitism; policies and postures of the Allies and of the Vatican during World War II; and the several Christian attempts at reformulation since the Holocaust, culminating with Pope John Paul II.

Pressezitat
"This useful work will serve as a textbook for the study of Jewish-Christian relations from their origin to the present day." (Jonathan Gorsky, Epworth Review)"This book could very well be used as valuable text for theology students, particularly those taking up an option in Jewish-Christian relations in their degree courses. ø...! I would also recommend it without reservation for the general reader who is interested in this relationship which is fundamental in Christian life." (Mary Kelly, SIDIC)
