More about the book
Focusing on interfaith dialogue, the book examines the ongoing relationship between Jewish and Christian communities post-Holocaust. It highlights the progress made in mutual respect while acknowledging the enduring conflict over the messianic identity of Jesus. Various theological perspectives have been proposed, yet none fully satisfy both sides. Utilizing William James' radical empirical method, the author presents the original Jewish messianic concept, the Christian reinterpretation, and the Jewish rejection as legitimate expressions of faith, fostering a deeper understanding of their differences.
