Hebraism in Religion, History, and Politics is an investigation
into Hebraism as a category of cultural analysis within the history
of Christendom. Its aim is to determine what Hebraism means or
should mean when it is used. The characteristics of Hebraism
indicate a changing relation between the Old and New Testaments
that arose in Medieval and early modern Europe, between on the one
hand a doctrinally universal Christianity, and on the other various
Christian nations that were understood as being a 'new Israel'.
Thus, Hebraism refers to the development of a paradoxically
intriguing 'Jewish Christianity' or an 'Old Testament
Christianity'. It represents a 'third culture' in contrast to the
culture of Roman or Hellenistic empire and Christian universalism.
There were attempts, with varying success, during the twentieth
century to clarify Hebraism as a category of cultural history and
religious history. Steven Grosby expertly contributes to that
clarification. In so doing, the possibility arises that Hebraism
and Hebraic culture offer a different way to look at religion, its
history, and the history of the West.
