"Understanding Your Neighbor's Faith: What Christians and Jews Should Know About Each Other was the brainchild of Rabbi Philip Lazowski of Hartford, Connecticut. The idea was born several years back after he invited a group of non-Jewish clergymen to visit the Holy Land with him. Priests, ministers and some members of their congregations who wanted a better understanding of Israel and Judaism enthusiastically accepted his gesture of good will. Rabbi Lazowski's unique perspective as a Holocaust survivor made him ideally poised to teach others about the historical and philosophical context of Judaism as well as its rich tradition of practice. Rabbi Lazowski also learned much from his colleagues of other faith traditions. This unprecedented volume gives Rabbi Lazowski and the other clergy the opportunity to explicate their religion, using their own language and concepts in responding to the questions of people of goodwill outside their faith. Difficult, even uncomfortable, questions are asked--and answered. No question is too simple or too complex. Every chapter, each by an author belonging to a different Christian faith tradition, will prove as informative to the co-religionist as to the outsider. The concise, straightforward question-and-answer style allows the book to be studied in full, read casually, or consulted for reference.

We are all familiar with the commandment to 'love your neighbour as yourself'. But it's difficult to know exactly what it means, There are three main problems - firstly, what is meant by 'love', secondly who is (and is not) your neighbour, and finally what does 'as yourself' mean? It's not as simple as it looks at first glance.Of course, it's not just us, today, who are asking these questions. The commandment has been interrogated and analysed for thousands of years, within the Jewish tradition and within the Christian tradition. Each generation, each new blast of scholarship, added a new layer of meaning to the plain sense of the biblical text.This book serves as a partial biography of the commandment, examining the commandment through three lenses. The first lens is the lens of Biblical scholarship and literary criticism. What does each word mean, on its own and in context. Did the words mean something very different to the Israelites at Sinai or the Judeans who first heard the Torah read out at the time of Ezra? What can we learn from comparing the Biblical text to texts from other cultures from the Ancient Near East. The second lens is the lens of Rabbinic Judaism. In particular, the midrash (legend) recorded three times in ancient Rabbinic texts (from 100 BCE to 700 CE) that the famous Rabbi Akiva debated with his colleague Simeon Ben Azzai as to which commandment was the principal or greatest commandment in Torah. Why might Rabbi Akiva have selected the commandment 'love your neighbour'? Why did Ben Azzai disagree? What can we learn from these ancient Rabbinic texts as to what the commandment meant to the Jews of late antiquity? The final lens is that of twentieth century Jewish philosophy. The commandment 'love your neighbour' was central to the work of two Jewish philosophers - one, Franz Rosenzweig who lived, worked and died in Germany prior to the Second World War; the other, Emmanuel Levinas, the Ethicist and Holocaust survivor. Both Rosenzweig and Levinas lived and worked in a cultural milieu where Jewish, Christian and Secular philosophies intermingled. Rosenzweig's world was one of Christian ascendency, and his life's work was to create a method for Jews and Christians to co-exist. Levinas saw that Philosophy had been used and abused by the Nazis to justify their own warped sense of superiority. He also found himself leading the shocked post-war Jewish community of France into reclaiming and revivifying their Jewish identity. In both cases, the commandment to 'love your neighbour' became a central premise to life in modernity - a premise as important to Jews and Christians as to those of no religion at all.This book provides a deep, scholarly and spiritually sensitive analysis of the commandment to 'love your neighbour'. Funds raised from its sale will enable further research - notably into the intervening centuries between the Rabbinic period and the emergence of modernity. It will be of interest to anyone with a broad inquiring mind into Judaism, Christianity, inter-faith and humanistic ethics.

In this topically relevant book on modern ethical issues, Dorff focuses on personal ethics, Judaism's distinctive way of understanding human nature, our role in life, and what we should strive to be, both as individuals and as members of a community. Dorff addresses specific moral issues that affect our personal lives: privacy, particularly at work as it is affected by the Internet and other modern technologies; sex in and outside of marriage; family matters, such as adoption, surrogate motherhood, stepfamilies, divorce, parenting, and family violence; homosexuality; justice, mercy, and forgiveness; and charitable acts and social action.

An eminent historian recounts the Nazi rise to power from his unique perspective as a young Jewish boy in Munich, living with Adolf Hitler as his neighbor. Edgar Feuchtwanger came from a prominent German-Jewish family--the only son of a respected editor and the nephew of a best-selling author, Lion Feuchtwanger. He was a carefree five-year-old, pampered by his parents and his nanny, when Adolf Hitler, the leader of the Nazi Party, moved into the building opposite theirs in Munich. In 1933 the joy of this untroubled life was shattered. Hitler had been named Chancellor. Edgar's parents, stripped of their rights as citizens, tried to protect him from increasingly degrading realities. In class, his teacher had him draw swastikas, and his schoolmates joined the Hitler Youth. Watching events unfold from his window, Edgar bore witness to the Night of the Long Knives, the Anschluss, and Kristallnacht. Jews were arrested; his father was imprisoned at Dachau. In 1939 Edgar was sent on his own to England, where he would make a new life, a career, have a family, and strive to forget the nightmare of his past--a past that came rushing back when he decided, at the age of eighty-eight, to tell the story of his buried childhood and his infamous neighbor.
