"This anthology does indeed offer a panoramic survey, and thus is a
valuable contribution to Holocaust literature.]"
--"The Princeton Seminary Bulletin"
"Rabbi Dan Cohn-Sherbok has provided a much needed and indeed
"panoramic survey of Holocaust theology" (1) that offers a
comprehensive overview of excerpts from representative writings in
the field. "Holocaust Theology: A Reader" provides a fine,
comprehensive overview of the interpretive possibilities."
--"Journal of the American Academy of Religion"
""Holocaust Theology: A Reader" should prove useful as an
introductory text which grapples with complex issues."
--"SHOFAR"
Where was God during the Holocaust? And where has God been
since? How has our religious belief been changed by the Shoah? For
more than half a century, these questions have haunted both Jewish
and Christian theologians. Holocaust Theology provides a panoramic
survey of the writings of more than one hundred leading Jewish and
Christian thinkers on these profound theological problems.
Beginning with a general introduction to Holocaust theology and
the religious challenge of the Holocaust, this sweeping collection
brings together in one volume a coherent overview of the key
theologies which have shaped responses to the Holocaust over the
last several decades, including those addressing perplexing
questions regarding Christian responsibility and culpability during
the Nazi era. Each reading is preceded by a brief introduction. The
volume will be invaluable to Rabbis and the clergy, students,
scholars of the Holocaust and of religion, and all those troubled
by the religious implications of the tragedy of the Holocaust.
Contributors include LeoBaeck, Eugene Borowitz, Stephen Haynes,
Abraham Joshua Heschel, Steven T. Katz, Primo Levi, Jacob Neusner,
John Pawlikowski, Rosemary Radford Reuther, Jonathan Sarna, Paul
Tillich, and Elie Wiesel.
