Abstract

"The author offers observations from the Jewish point of view, accentuating the need for Christians, Jews, and all humanity to see each other more as separated brethren than conquerors of doctrinal disputes or combatants on the literal fields of history with a greater understanding of Jewish heritage in the Western world and the need to preserve the worldview specially granted to the Jews historically"--

Abstract

"Au début du XXIe siècle, que des juifs et des chrétiens se retrouvent pour le partage et la prière, avec chacun le souci de vivre le plus authentiquement possible cette rencontre, cela est devenu presque banal. Qu'en 1971, André Chouraqui, déjà connu pour son travail sur la Bible et le dialogue entre les trois religions issues d'Abraham, vienne participer à une retraite spirituelle protestante, c'était déjà plus exceptionnel.Mais qu'au milieu des années trente, un jeune homme algérien d'origine juive, se lie d'amitié avec une infirmière protestante et traverse la France pour rencontrer dans un petit village d'Ardèche, Louis Dallière, un pasteur protestant ardent promoteur d'une foi confessante c'était totalement inouï ! Cette rencontre marquera profondément André Chouraqui car elle contribuera, avec bien d'autres expériences, à le tourner vers une quête spirituelle dont les fruits ont enrichi le dialogue religieux de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle.Ce texte inédit est publié quarante ans après avoir été écouté, médité et prié par les participants à la retraite annuelle de l'Union de prière (1971), communauté de l'espérance fondée en Ardèche par le pasteur Louis Dallière. Pour notre société pressée, cette durée aura valeur de date de péremption, mais à l'horloge de Dieu, quarante ans c'est la durée de l'épreuve et c'est le temps nécessaire à l'accomplissement de la promesse, c'est surtout l'heure de l'espérance imminente" - Pasteur David Bouillon.

Abstract

In this careful and provocative study, Chad Thornhill considers how Second Temple understandings of election influenced key Pauline texts with sensitivity to social, historical and literary factors. While Paul is able to move beyond ancient categories of a collective view of election, Thornhill shows how he also follows these patterns.

Abstract

The Letter to the Romans explains the way Paul thought Jewish covenantal identity continued now that the messianic era had begun. More particularly, Paul addresses the relevance of Abraham for Jews and gentiles, the role of Torah, and the way it is contextualized in Christ. All too often, however, these topics are read in supersessionist ways. This book argues that such readings are unpersuasive. It offers instead a post-supersessionist perspective in which Jewish covenantal identity continues in Paul's gospel. Paul is no destroyer of worlds. The aim of this book is to offer a different view of the key interpretive points that lead to supersessionist understandings of Paul's most important letter. It draws on the findings of those aligned with the Paul within Judaism paradigm and accents those findings with a light touch from social identity theory. When combined, these resources help the reader to hear Romans afresh, in a way that allows both Jewish and non-Jewish existing identities continued relevance.

Abstract

One cannot think of Judaism without taking some stance relating to Israel’s special status, its election. The present collection highlights the challenges that Judaism faces, as it continues to uphold a sense of chosenness and as it seeks to engage the world beyond it—nations, as well as religions. The challenge is captured by the dual implication of election: divine love on the one hand and enmity with others on the other. Israel’s election, mission and vocation are played out within this tension of love, grounded in God and extending to humanity, and the opposite of love, as this finds expression in Israel’s relations with others. Israel must work out the purpose of its election and its realization in history in the tension between these two extremes. This challenge takes on great urgency in the context of advances in interfaith relations. These lead us to reflect on the meaning of Israel’s election as part of developing a contemporary Jewish theology of world religions.

Abstract

Back cover: The book explores the literary and ideological development of God's threats to destroy the people of Israel. The idea that God could harm Israel exists in the biblical texts alongside the belief that this people is chosen and has a unique bond with God. The book employs a diachronic method to explore the ways in which the tradition was formed and developed, tracing the authors' exegetical purposes and ploys, and the historical realities of their time.
