Résumé : |
There have been small Jewish settlements in India and China for hundreds of years. But the minority Christian churches in Asia have had little contact with living Jewish communities. They have thus tended to see the Jews only as the "people of the Old Testament." As a result, they have often viewed Jewish-Christian dialogue as a concern limited to Europe and North America, aimed only at overcoming the painful legacy of antisemitism in church and society.
The Jewish and Asian Christian theological perspectives developed in the essays collected here show that these two faith groups have much to learn from each other, and to teach us all, about the experience of being a minority, the meaning of the image of God, the concept of identity as a people of God, and the challenge of religious pluralism. |
