About this ebook

This fascinating volume offers bold new insights into what it means to be a Christian or a Jew. We are Christians or Jews, Michael Goldberg maintains, not principally because we embrace different creeds, but because we have gained an understanding of the world from one of two distinct "master stories" - for Jews, the Exodus; for Christians, the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. The author demonstrates what each master story ultimately reveals about who God is, what humanity is, and how humanity should therefore act in God's world.

About the author

Michael Goldberg, an ordained rabbi and trained theologian living in Dover, Delaware, has held endowed chairs of Jewish Studies at St. John's University (MN) and William and Mary (VA). He has also worked as a hospice and hospital chaplain, serving both Jewish and Christian patients.
