Publisher Description
Today the point of departure for thinking about a reasonable Baptist-Jewish relationship must be the recognition that the Holocaust--the murder of six million Jews planned and executed in the heart of Europe--was a watershed event in recent church history, perhaps the watershed event. One may object that such a statement may be true for Jewish history as well as the history of Germany, but why is this event relevant for church history, and why must it also concern Baptist unions, conventions, or even individual congregations outside Germany or Europe? Why is this an event for the worldwide Baptist community? Is it of central theological importance for Baptists to establish and maintain sound relationships with Jews?
