While Christians and Jews have always been aware of close connections between Israel and the church and between the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament, that awareness has traditionally been infected by centuries of mutual suspicion and hostility. This book brings together Jewish and Christian scholars engaged in fresh thinking about the relation of their respective covenant communities. The volume features a moving testimony by Reidar Dittmann on his experience of the Holocaust and includes the 2000 Jewish statement on Christians and Christianity titled Dabru Emet ('Speak the Truth'), followed by important Christian and Jewish responses. A must read for anyone, scholar of this subject or not!
