The publication of Defining New Christian/Jewish Dialogue marks a new milestone in the maturation of Jewish/Christian relations, particularly in light of the challenges surrounding the biblical texts of the New Testament. In a persistent aim to rectify the chronicled state of miseducation, the American Interfaith Institute commits itself to the removal of iniquitous language by calling publishers of the Bible to task in removing unfounded anti-Jewish language and sentiment from specific passages of the New Testament. The chapters in this book represent an update to this ongoing work and also serve as an inspiring model for resolution, acceptance, and celebration between the two faiths. Bringing together the most distinguished voices in Jewish/Christian dialogue, this book is a tool for leadership and a prophetic vision for peaceful conversation among religions.
