Soundings in the Religion of Jesus

More about the book

Exploring the historical and theological implications of Jesus' Jewish identity, this book features contributions from a diverse group of scholars who examine its significance for modern Jewish-Christian dialogue. It delves into the complexities of scriptural translation, the influence of Nazi ideology on theological interpretations, and the dual nature of New Testament depictions of Jesus. By addressing both the celebration and neglect of his Jewishness, the work aims to foster a deeper understanding and improve relations between the two faiths over the centuries.
