Modern Jewish Theology is the first comprehensive collection of
Jewish theological ideas from the pathbreaking nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries, featuring selections from more than thirty of
the most influential Jewish thinkers of the era, explorations of
Judaism’s identity, uniqueness, and relevance, the origin of
ethical monotheism, and the possibility of Jewish existentialism.
These works—most translated for the first time into English by
top scholars in modern Jewish history and philosophy—reveal how
modern Jewish theology developed in concert with broader trends in
Jewish intellectual and social modernization, especially
scholarship (Wissenschaft des Judentums), politics (liberalism and
Zionism), and religious practice (movement Judaism and the
struggles to transcend denominational boundaries). This anthology
thus opens to the English-language reader a true treasure house of
source material from the formative years of modern Jewish thought,
bringing together writings from the very first generations, who
imagined biblical and rabbinic texts and modern scientific research
would produce a synthetic view of God, Israel, and the world. A
general introduction and chapter introductions guide students and
non-specialists through the key themes and transformations in
modern Jewish theology, and extensive annotations immerse them in
the latest scholarship.
