Volume XXIV of the distinguished annual Studies in Contemporary
Jewry explores the question of relations between Jews and
Protestants in modern times. One of the four major branches of
Christianity, Protestantism is perhaps the most difficult to write
about; it has innumerable sects and churches within it, from the
loosely organized Religious Society of Friends to the conservative
Evangelicals of the Bible Belt. Different strands of Protestantism
hold vastly different views on theology, social problems, and
politics. These views play out in differing attitudes and
relationships between mainstream Protestant churches and Jews,
Judaism, and the State of Israel. In this volume, established
scholars from multiple disciplines and various countries delve into
these essential questions of the "Protestant-Jewish conundrum." The
discussion begins with a trenchant analysis of the historical
framework in which Protestant ideas towards Jews and Judaism were
formed. Contributors delve into diverse topics including the
attitudes of the Evangelical movement toward Jews and Israel;
Protestant reactions to Mel Gibson's blockbuster "The Passion of
the Christ."; German-Protestant behavior during and after Nazi era;
and mainstream Protestant attitudes towards Israel and the
Israeli-Arab conflict.. Taken as a whole, this compendium presents
discussions and questions central to the ongoing development of
Jewish-Protestant relations. Studies in Contemporary Jewry seeks to
provide its readers with up-to-date and accessible scholarship on
questions of interest in the general field of modern Jewish
studies. Studies in Contemporary Jewry presents new approaches to
the scholarly work of the latest generation of researchers working
on Jewish history, sociology, demography, political science, and
culture.
