Résumé : |
How do Jews pray and worship?
What do Jews believe? Is Judaism today the same as the Judaism of the Bible? What are the similarities and differences between Christianity and Judaism? These and many other questions are answered in this concise, yet comprehensive introduction. Christians of all denominations will find reliable and up-to-date information on Judaism and its relationship to Christianity. Each short chapter introduces and explores an important topic in Jewish faith and life. Subjects include: Jewish prayer, celebrations in the home, worship, Passover, messianic expectation, antiSemitism, the Holocaust, the state of Israel, and Christians and Jews today. Carefully researched and clearly written, Judaism: An Introduction for Christians is an ideal study book for both individual and group use. |
