This title investigates interreligious hospitality from five
different religious perspectives: Jewish, Christian, Hindu,
Buddhist and Islamic. "Hosting the Stranger" features ten powerful
meditations on the theme of interreligious hospitality by eminent
scholars and practitioners from the five different wisdom
traditions: Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist and Islamic. By
gathering thinkers from different religious traditions around the
same timely topic of what it means to "host the stranger," this
text enacts the hospitality it investigates, facilitating a hopeful
and constructive dialogue between the world's major religions. The
first part of the volume offers five different hermeneutic readings
that each wrestle with what interreligious hospitality means and
what it demands. The second part is divided equally between the
five different religious perspectives on hosting the stranger, with
two thinkers representing each religion. Together these essays
remind us of the urgent need for interreligious hospitality, and
more importantly, they testify to its ongoing possibility.
