"An invaluable text. The individual essays are gems, written by
recognized authorities in their respective disciplines, and they
work as a seamless whole to address the fundamental issues raised
by the Holocaust. The volume offers both as a challenge and a
stimulus for future thought. . . . Erudite and pathbreaking."
--Alan L. Berger, Raddock Eminent Scholar Chair of Holocaust
Studies, Florida Atlantic University
"This is a serious book...The scholars represented here wrestle
with substantial issues."
--"Jewish Book World"
The theological problems facing those trying to respond to the
Holocaust remain monumental. Both Jewish and Christian
post-Auschwitz religious thought must grapple with profound
questions, from how God allowed it to happen to the nature of
evil.
The Impact of the Holocaust on Jewish Theology brings together a
distinguished international array of senior scholars--many of whose
work is available here in English for the first time--to consider
key topics from the meaning of divine providence to questions of
redemption to the link between the Holocaust and the creation of
the State of Israel. Together, they push our thinking further about
how our belief in God has changed in the wake of the Holocaust.
