This title presents a timely and thought-provoking discussion of the intimate connections and the birth of a modern dialogue between Christianity and Judaism. Jewish and Christian traditions are bound by an intimacy that is unprecedented in the history of religion - Jesus, Mary, Paul, and the first apostles were all Jewish. Given this intimate connection, one might assume that a dialogue between the two religions would come naturally. The opposite, however, appears to be the case. "Jewish-Christian Dialogue" is an informative and thought-provoking discussion of the birth of modern dialogue between the two religions - a direct result of the Jewish Holocaust in the centre of Christian Europe during World War II. Drawing on the writings of a number of pre-eminent scholars, this is an important work for anyone with an interest in the intimate connections between two of the world's major religions.
