This is the first published book-length treatment on Paul Tillich
and Judaism, which is a neglected aspect of Tillich's thought. It
has three compelling features. First, pivotal biographical details
show the importance of Judaism for Tillich, and that he ardently
opposed anti-Semitism before WWII and after the Holocaust. Second,
Tillich's theological method is examined in key primary sources to
show how he maintains continuity between Judaism and Christianity.
The primary source analysis includes his 1910 and 1912
dissertations on Schelling, the 1933 The Socialist Decision, the
1952 Berlin lectures on "the Jewish Question," and his final public
lecture on the importance of the history of religion for systematic
theology. Particular attention is paid to his dialectical and
theological history of religion. Third, Tillich's positive theology
of Judaism contrasts sharply with the many complex, negative ways
in which Judaism is portrayed in Western thought. This contributes
significantly to our understanding the evolving history of
Christian anti-Judaism.
