  • Judaism in the New Testamentby Bruce Chilton

    Taylor & Francis 1995; US$ 44.95

    These two immensely distinguished writers show how the writings of the early church emerged from communities which defined themselves in Judaic terms even as they followed Jesus; how the early movement is best seen as 'Christian Judaism'. more...

  • Roots of Theological Anti-Semitismby Anders Gerdmar

    BRILL 2008; US$ 218.00

    As Adolf Hitler strategised his way to power, he knew that it was necessary to gain the support of theology and the Church.

  • Learning from Historyby HUBERT LOCKE

    ABC-CLIO 2000; US$ 161.00

    Because the Holocaust, at its core, was an extreme expression of a devastating racism, the author contends it has special significance for African Americans. Locke, a university professor, clergyman, and African American, reflects on the common experiences of African American and Jewish people as minorities and on the great tragedy that each community has experienced in its history?slavery and the Holocaust. Without attempting to equate the experiences of African Americans to the experiences of European Jews during the Holocaust, the author does show how aspects of the Holocaust, its impact on the Jewish community worldwide, and the long-lasting consequences relate to slavery, the civil rights movement, and the current status of African Americans.||Written... more...

  • Inventing the Holy Landby Stephanie Rogers

    Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group, Inc. 2011; US$ 59.99

    This book examines the relationship between American Protestants and Palestine from 1842-1917.

  • Living Letters of the Lawby Jeremy Cohen

    University of California Press 1999; US$ 35.95

    In Living Letters of the Law , Jeremy Cohen investigates the images of Jews and Judaism in the works of medieval Christian theologians from Augustine to Thomas Aquinas. He reveals how?and why?medieval Christianity fashioned a Jew on the basis of its reading of the Bible, and how this hermeneutically crafted Jew assumed distinctive character and power in Christian thought and culture. Augustine's doctrine of Jewish witness, which constructed the Jews so as to mandate their survival in a properly ordered Christian world, is the starting point for this illuminating study. Cohen demonstrates how adaptations of this doctrine reflected change in the self-consciousness of early medieval civilization. After exploring the effect of twelfth-century... more...

  • Der Ort des Jüdischen in der katholischen Theologieby Gerhard Langer; Gregor Maria Hoff

    Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht 2011; US$ 53.56

    Hauptbeschreibung Der vorliegende Sammelband nimmt Maß an der Bedeutung, die die Israeltheologie und das Judentum in den einzelnen Fächern hatten und haben. Karl Barth hat darauf hingewiesen, dass der Verlust des Judenchristentums einen unersetzbaren theologisch-kirchlichen Verlust bedeutet. Damit weist er in die Richtung, in die sich das Buchprojekt bewegt. Über Jahrhunderte war bereits diese Frage unmöglich. Es erscheint bis heute als ein Bruch mit einer langen Erinnerungstradition, dass diese Frage als Ausgangspunkt einer theologischen Disziplingeschichte gewählt wird. Diese Geschichte nimmt sich dabei in weiten Teilen als eine Disziplinierung Israels aus. Dass Israel mit Paulus die bleibende Wurzel des Christentums sei, hat sich... more...
