Synopsis

Preface by Karl Hermann Blickle
Introductions by Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, and Former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams


In December, twenty-five Orthodox rabbis around the world published the controversial statement, To Do the Will of Our Father in Heaven: Toward a Partnership between Jews and Christians. It was the first public Orthodox statement on Christianity since the Catholic Church changed its teachings toward Judaism and the Jewish People in 1965. Citing rabbinic precedents, To Do the Will of Our Father articulated a bold vision of covenantal appreciation between Jews and Christians. Today more than one hundred Orthodox rabbis, teachers, professors and communal leaders have signed the statement. From Confrontation to Covenantal Partnership offers reflections by prominent Jewish and Christian thinkers on To Do the Will of Our Father. The authors discuss the history of To Do the Will of Our Father, its breakthroughs and its theological, legal and communal implications. This book will interest Jews, Christians, scholars, laypersons, communal leaders and everyone interested in building a better future together. Additional Contributors
