Product Description
by Pinchas Lapide (Author), J?gen Moltmann (Author), Leonard J. Swidler (Translator)
This enlightening and authentic conversation - on one of the oldest and most difficult complex of problems dividing Jews and Christians - is an exciting example of what genuine interreligious dialogue can produce: surprising insights into the meaning of reality of which neither partner had more than an inkling. This dialogue yields an understanding of Judaism and of Christianity and brings each profoundly closer to the other.
