For Christians seeking deeper theological understanding

Addresses misconceptions about Jews in Christian thought

You will gain insight into a complex historical narrative

This book challenges readers to rethink the relationship between Jews and Christian theology.
In this thought provoking book, Stephen Haynes takes a hard look at contemporary Christian theology as he explores the pervasive Christian "witness-people" myth that dominates much Christian thinking about the Jews in both Christian and Jewish minds. This myth, an ancient theological construct that has put Jews in the role of living symbols of God's dealings with the world, has for centuries, according to Haynes, created ambivalence toward the Jews in the Christian mind with often disastrous results.
