How can finite minds approach an infinite and ultimately unknowable God? Is it true that Christianity is a religion of love and Judaism a religion of law? Can a Jew accept the Orthodox Christian veneration of holy images? How much do Jews and Orthodox Christians have in common when they worship God? What can be done about Christian prayers that Jews find offensive? How much responsibility do Christians carry for antisemitism? These and other questions are addressed in this book which is intended as a major contribution to encounters between Judaism and Orthodox Christianity. In seventeen chapters, expert theologians and historians examine central issues of common concern relating to theology and worship as well as to the vexed historical question of anti-Semitism. The focus is on dialogue and deepened knowledge, as the contributors s dispel widely-held misconceptions and identify a good deal of common ground.
Nicholas de Lange is professor emeritus of Hebrew and Jewish Studies in the University of Cambridge. Elena Narinskaya is an academic researcher in Abrahamic Religions. Sybil Sheridan is a freelance rabbi currently working with Newcastle Reform Synagogue.
