Introduction [to New perspectives on Jewish-Christian relations]

Abstract

Collectively, the essays in this volume shine new light on the remarkably fertile field of Jewish-Christian relations from the distant past to the present. )e culture of each has been profoundly affected by the other at various points in their respective histories. No one has done more than David Berger to trace how each of these faith communities cherished its Scripture, was highly aware of the presence of the other, and shaped its responses accordingly. (from Conclusion).
