With acknowledgment that Christian theology contributed to the
persecution and genocide of Jews comes a dilemma: how to excise the
cancer without killing the patient? Kendall Soulen shows how
important Christian assertions-the uniqueness of Jesus, the
Christian covenant, the finality of salvation in Christ-have been
formulated in destructive, supersessionist ways not only in the
classical period (Justin Martyr, Irenaeus) and early modernity
(Kant and Schleiermacher) but even contemporary theology (Barth and
Rahner). Along with this first full-scale critique of Christian
supersessionism, Soulen's own constructive proposal regraps the
narrative unity of Christian identity and the canon through an
original and important insight into the divine-human covenant, the
election of Israel, and the meaning of history.
