This important and timely study is rooted in the belief that the
relationship between Judaism and Christianity is a gift of God to
the church to be received with gratitude, respect and care, so that
we may learn more fully about God's purposes for the world. It
offers a theological exploration of that relationship that is
mindful of the prejudice and persecution experienced by the Jewish
community throughout history, not least from the Christian church,
and is intended as antidote to antisemitism. Part One explores the
distinctive relationship between Judaism and Christianity and
traces its troubled history. Part Two considers critical
contemporary issues and reflects on how the Church should conduct
itself appropriately in its mission and evangelism, teaching and
preaching, ethical practices and attitudes towards Israel and
Palestine.
