Jewish Philosophy for the Twenty-First Century encourages contemporary Jewish thinkers to reflect on the meaning of Judaism in the modern world by connecting these reflections to their own personal biographies. In so doing, it reveals the complexity of Jewish thought in the present moment. The contributors reflect on a range of political, social, ethical, and educational challenges that face Jews and Judaism today and chart a path for the future. The results showcase how Jewish philosophy encompasses the methodologies and concerns of other fields such as political theory, intellectual history, theology, religious studies, anthropology, education, comparative literature, and cultural studies. By presenting how Jewish thinkers address contemporary challenges of Jewish existence, the volume makes a valuable contribution to the humanities as a whole, especially at a time when the humanities are increasingly under duress for being irrelevant.

Un Pieux et un Sage débattent : est-il légitime de recourir à la philosophie, lorsqu’il s’agit de comprendre la vérité livrée par la Torah ? L’usage de la raison n’est-il pas un affront à l’autorité de la tradition ? De ce débat immémorial, inspiré des vifs affrontements qui, au XIIIe siècle, ont suivi la diffusion du maître ouvrage de la philosophie juive médiévale, le Guide des égarés de Maïmonide, ressort une réflexion fondamentale sur la nature de la croyance et l’exigence de sa fondation en raison. L’Épître de la controverse, plus qu’une version littéraire du Discours décisif d’Averroès, constitue une introduction militante à la philosophie juive et plus généralement un manifeste pour la philosophie.Le Pieux : « Tes propos sont surprenants : tu voudrais contredire ce que chacun sait, masquer ce que les yeux voient et dédire la voix que toutes les oreilles ont entendue. Ne savons-nous pas que les philosophes sont ceux que l’on nomme « sectaires », qu’ils sont hérétiques vis-à-vis du Créateur de toutes choses et que tous leurs propos contredisent notre Torah ? »

Eliezer Schweid's career as philosopher, scholar, educator and public intellectual has spanned the history of the State of Israel from the pre-war Yishuv period to the present. In these essays he recalls his formative years in the Zionist youth and the Hebrew University. He reflects on the existential loneliness of the modern Jew. He examines the perennial problem of theodicy through a Jewish lens in its broadest human parameters. Finally, he offers a challenging critique of the postmodern culture of the "global village," in which the marketplace and skepticism have crowded out humane values rooted in the traditions of historical culture.

He has contributed greatly to the growth of Jewish Studies, the place of Judaism in Religious Studies, interreligious dialogue, and the reframing of Judaism in light of the Holocaust, postmodernism, and poststructuralism. For Blumenthal, theology is an ongoing reflection about everything we believe and do in the context of the living tradition.

Ein zentrales Thema in Bubers Bibelstudien – und implizit auch in seiner Interpretation des Christentums und des Zionismus – ist der Messianismus. Von den Arbeiten zu diesem Thema, die ursprünglich als dreiteilige Studie konzipiert waren, gelangte lediglich der erste Teil, Königtum Gottes (1932), wie vorgesehen zur Veröffentlichung. Zudem werden in diesem Band die verschiedenen – zum Teil noch unveröffentlichten – Vorträge und Essays von Bubers Deutung des biblischen Messianismus zusammengefasst.
