Seeking Shalom
The amazing, historic journey of Jews and Christians coming together. In this book Philip Cunningham traces the remarkable developments in Catholic-Jewish relations over the last fifty years. Centuries of antipathy and suspicion, Cunningham says, have largely given way to a new, mutually enriching relationship between the two traditions of Judaism and Catholicism. A specialist in Christian-Jewish relations, Cunningham recounts the amazing, historic journey of Jews and Christians coming together in light of both Scripture and theology, covering the period from Vatican II up to the present day. After fifty years of significant dialogue, Cunningham suggests, Catholics and Jews are now on the threshold of building true shalom between their two communities, experiencing the Holy One anew in each other's distinctive and edifying ways of walking with God.
Catholic-Jewish Relations
This book provides an introductory guide to key themes articulated in conciliar, papal, and curial statements of the Catholic Church as part of its ongoing dialogue and friendship with the Jewish people. Themes include the significance of Jesus’s identity as a faithful Jew; the Church’s permanent link with the mystery of Israel; the continuing validity of the “unrevoked” Jewish covenant; Scripture as a source of both unity and division between Christians and Jews; appreciation of Judaism as a living tradition; the problem of supersessionism and anti-Jewish prejudice in biblical interpretation; Antisemitism; Mission; the significance of the Land.
