This meticulously researched study is based on a comprehensive reading of all the major Jewish sources from the Geonic period in the ninth century until the dawn of the Haskalah in the late eighteenth century. Its clearly written and carefully documented exposition of the philosophical arguments used by Jews to refute four central doctrines of Christianity (trinity, incarnation, transubstantiation, and virgin birth) makes a major contribution to a relatively neglected area of medieval Jewish intellectual history.

reviewed Jewish Philosophical Polemics Against Christianity In The Middle Ages on March 19, 2017 Jewish Philosophical Polemics Against Christianity In The Middle Ages
The editors of this book are associated with The Institute for Christian & Jewish Studies in Baltimore, Maryland, a stellar program that has been leading efforts for interreligious dialogue for thirty years. In this volume they have assembled first-rate religious scholars and educators to address the most vexing (and common) questions at the heart of Jewish and Christian understanding. With careful attention to nuance, detail and delineation, ten chapters include questions as Do Jews and Christians worship the same God? How Do Jews and Christians read the Bible? What is the meaning of "Israel" for Jews and Christians? What Do Jews and Christians believe about the redemption, salvation and life after death? Is suffering redemptive? Are irreconcilable differences between Christians and Jews a blessing, a curse or both? There are more questions that could be asked, but these are the critical ones are the heart of the dialogue that will lead toward a clear understanding of each religious tradition. It is rare that one finds a book so carefully designed to help people get beyond sentimental affirmations of "tolerances" to the heart of the differences that truly are different, yet can be accepted with honesty and integrity. Each chapter concludes with further questions of discussion making this an excellent resource for Christian and Jewish congregations that desire to enter into interreligious dialogue. The glossary of terms is also invaluable to the conversation.
