The idea of a Jewish Church has been banned from the Christian
horizon for almost two millennia. But things are changing. Since
the middle of the 70s the Messianic Jewish movement has strived to
build an ecclesial home for all Jewish believers in Christ. This
new phenomenon brings to life issues that had disappeared since the
first centuries of the Church. What does it mean to be a Jew in the
Church? Should there be a distinction between Jews and non-Jews
among believers in Christ? Is such a distinction compatible with
the unity of the whole Body of Christ so ardently preached by Paul?
What lifestyle should this Church promote? In his various works,
Mark Kinzer, a prominent Messianic Jewish theologian, has attempted
to provide substantial answers to these questions. Antoine Levy is
a Dominican priest. With Kinzer, Levy has launched the "Helsinki
Consultation", a cross-denominational gathering of Jewish
theologians. In Jewish Church: A Catholic Approach to Messianic
Judaism, Levy examines Kinzer's positions critically, bringing
forward an alternative vision of what a "Jewish Church" could and
should be. This is only the beginning of what promises to be a
fascinating discussion.
