Jacob's Younger Brother: Christian-Jewish Relations After Vatican II
A revealing account of contemporary tensions between Jews and Christians, playing out beneath the surface of conciliatory interfaith dialogue.A new chapter in Jewish-Christian relations opened in the second half of the twentieth century when the Second Vatican Council exonerated Jews from the accusation of deicide and declared that the Jewish people had never been rejected by God. While Catholic and Jewish leaders publicly promoted interfaith dialogue, doubts remained behind closed doors. In a few carefully phrased statements, two millennia of deep hostility were swept into the trash heap of history.But old animosities die hard.
For their part, many Jews perceived the new Catholic line as a Church effort to shore up support Catholic officials and theologians soon found that changing their attitude toward Jews could threaten the foundations of Christian tradition.
