The Religious Other as Neighbor
New Theology Review (2009)
  • Reverend Lawrence E. Frizzell, D.Phil., Seton Hall University
Abstract
Many stories are told about antagonism between Christians and Jews, especially in countries with a large Jewish minority. The history of persecution should be told along with the lessons learned for our time. A brief review of examples whose participants were neighbors, either in reality or in principle, may be instructive. This paper will move through the centuries in a rapid survey, recalling friendly contacts or benign exchanges between Christians and Jews.
