Karl Barth's attitude toward the Jews, despite some admittedly
unfortunate elements, still has much to commend it and the essays
in this volume discuss this matter. The contributors examine
numerous topics: the extent to which Barth compares favorably with
recent post-Holocaust theologies, Barth's position on the Jews
during the Third Reich, his critique of the German-Christian
Voelkish church on ethical grounds. The discussion tackles Barth
dialectical "Yes" to Israel's christological "No", it unpacks his
ground-breaking exegesis of Rom. 9-11; as well as examines Barth's
rejection of the 1933 Aryan Law that formed the basis for excluding
baptized Jews from Christian communities during the Third Reich.
The essays also examine Barth's later worries about Nostra Aetate,
Vatican II's landmark "Declaration on the Relation of the Church to
Non-christian Religions". This is followed by an in-depth
explanation how Barth's theology differentiated the question of
religious pluralism from church's relationship with Judaism. This
inspiring volume concludes by taking up the neglected question of
Barth's place in modern European history.
