Publisher's Synopsis
This book provides the most comprehensive collection to date of twentieth century Jewish writings. This carefully constructed anthology highlights the enormous range of theological viewpoints and methods that have characterized Jewish theological reflection in modern times. Including representative selections from both pre- and post-World Wat II thinkers, with emphasis on writings of the last four decades, the volume offers essays on god, creation, revelation, redemption, covenant/chosenness, law, the Holocaust and the modern State of Israel. This is an exceptional one-volume introduction to contemporary Jewish thought.
