In recent decades, however, a new spirit of dialogue has been emerging, beginning with an awakening among Christians of the Jewish origins of Christianity, and encouraging scholars of both traditions to work together. An Introduction to Jewish-Christian relations sheds fresh light on this ongoing interfaith encounter, exploring key writings and themes in Jewish-Christian history, from the Jewish context of the New Testament to major events of modern times, including the rise of ecumenism, the horrors of the Holocaust, and the creation of the state of Israel. This accessible theological and historical study also touches on numerous related areas such as Jewish and interfaith studies, philosophy, sociology, cultural studies, international relations and the political sciences"--Provided by publisher.  aDescription based on print version record. 0aJudaismxRelationsxChristianityxHistory. 0aChristianity and other religionsxJudaismxHistory. 7aGeschichte.2swd07aChristentum.2swd07aJudentum.2swd 4aElectronic books.08iPrint version:aKessler, Edward, Dr.tIntroduction to Jewish-Christian relations.dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2010z9780521879767w(DLC)  2009038171w(OCoLC)435418167 0aIntroduction to religion.403NetLibraryuhttp://www.netLibrary.com/urlapi.asp?action=summary&v=1&bookid=313325  acpp1723AUTO  a02bN$T  c49797d49797
