RLST 137 JT - Jewish-Christian Relations The course will examine the relations between Jews and Christians from antiquity to the present. It will trace the origins of Christian and anti-Judaism, and explore the ways in which Jews and Christians have thought about the other. We shall attempt to understand what issues divided the two communities, how theological, social, political, and racial concepts contributed to the development of anti-Semitism, how Jews have understood Christians and responded to Christian religious and social claims about Jews, and what attempts have been made throughout history, but particularly since the Holocaust, to establish more constructive relations.
Course Credit: 1.0 Offered: Every other year
