Overview
Why are there so many Christians and so few Jews? Has the existence of Christianity been good or bad for the Jews? How can anyone be an antiSemite when Jesus was Jewish? Do Christians really believe that Jesus, our Jewish brother, is God? What does Christ mean? What does Messiah mean to Christians and Jews? What do Christians and Jews believe about Heaven and Hell, the end times and the afterlife? What does each religion teach about Love and Forgiveness? How have Christians and Jews reconciled since the Holocaust? These are some of the questions answered in this book.
For most of the past two thousand years, interfaith discussion was characterized by competition and, often, denigration. We are fortunate to live in the modern age, when people can study and appreciate other faiths. We have come to understand the common origins of Christianity and Rabbinic Judaism while recognizing the distinctive features and integrity of each religion. Despite this progress, there is still a great deal of mystery and misunderstanding between religions. Well intentioned efforts at mutual understanding sometimes misfire. Negative perceptions from the past still intrude.
We hope that this book will make a positive contribution to interfaith relations. Rabbi Wylen believes that when Jews and Christians all live up to the better angels in our own traditions, the whole world benefits. May knowledge lead to wisdom and wisdom lead to peace.
