Reviews
This is a hard-hitting, no-holds-barred study of anti-Semitism, which the rabbi-author contends is a Christian problem because of the triumphalism of the Christian church and the negative, distorted view of Jews and Judaism found in much of the New Testament. Rosenberg shows the essential Jewishness of Jesus, defends the Pharisees, rigorously argues that Judaism remains a living covenantal faith, and attempts to dispel the many Christian myths that denigrate the mother religion. This is a controversial and "impolite" book sorely needed by the ongoing Christian-Jewish dialogue, at present overly genteel. For most collections.Robert A. Silver, Shaker Heights P.L., Ohio
