Full Description

The Structure of Religion: Judaism and Christianity presents a unique approach to understand each religion within its own context by addressing the differences in the ways in which each manifests itself in the world. Because it is frequently the differences in attitudes and behaviors, and not just beliefs, that constitute the major stumbling blocks to improved Jewish-Christian relations today, this book seeks to enhance respect for and appreciation of the other by utilizing a structural approach to both religions.
