Since Martin Buber in Two Types of Faith acknowledged Jesus as his
"great brother," other Jewish writers have sought to ascertain a
place for Jesus within the larger context of Jewish history. In the
aftermath of the Shoah, specifically in the afflicted consciousness
of humanity, Jew and Christian alike began to ask how this tragedy
could have happened, especially among and against people of faith.
In an effort to assure that such a tragedy never happens again, the
focus of some fell upon Jesus, previously the obstacle to
reconciliation, but now perceived as the obvious and most viable
bridge to span the chasm and assuage the wound of anti-Jewish and
anti-Christian sentiments. Still others chose to join and expand
the academic quest for the historical Jesus, adding Jewish voices
to the effort to explore more rigorously and objectively the figure
of Jesus in historical writing. In this unique and illuminating
volume, Father Daniel F. Moore presents the historical identity of
Jesus through lens of such Jewish scholars as Schalom Ben-Chorin,
David Flusser, Geza Vermes, and Jacob Neuser. A useful book for
those interesting in ecumenical discourse and Jesus studies.
