9781681629599: A Jewish Understanding of the New Testament

Synopsis

An in-depth look at the Christian scriptures—from a Jewish perspective.

Many Jewish people know the New Testament only through snippets of verse heard at a Christian wedding or funeral, or through a chapter read in literature class. Many are completely unfamiliar with the meaning or messages of Christian scripture and therefore hold strange or startling judgments about it.

A Jewish Understanding of the New Testament introduces the text to Jewish readers. Samuel Sandmel applies scholarly criticism and provides historical background to the writings of the New Testament, revealing how the sacred literature of other religions can provide fresh perspectives on one's own beliefs.

Without compromising his Jewish identity or encouraging any traditional Jewish stereotypes of the New Testament, Sandmel offers an enlightened view of Christian beliefs and encourages readers to acknowledge their common humanity with people of all religions. (Previously published by KTAV Publishing House, 1974, ISBN 0-870682-628.)

Hardback. Condition: New. An in-depth look at the Christian scriptures-from a Jewish perspective.On Christmas day 1925, Rabbi Stephen S.Wise, one of the twentieth century's most influential Jewish leaders, gave a lecture at Carnegie Hall in New York City titled "A Jew's View of Jesus." He argued that Jesus, in fact, existed, contrary to popular Jewish opinion at that time. He said, "Neither Christian protest nor Jewish lamentation can annul the fact that Jesus was a Jew, an Hebrew of Hebrews."Thirty years later, Rabbi Samuel Sandmel set out to explain and introduce-for the first time in scholarly detail from a Jewish perspective-the enigmatic character of the texts held sacred by Christians, the so-called New Testament that surrounds and presents the figure of Jesus.In this new edition of Sandmel's classic work, you will encounter his lucid and brilliant introduction to the New Testament from a Jewish point of view, transcending the boundaries of religion in order to share in the profound perplexities and deep aspirations that we as human beings have been inspired to express.
