At the heart of the Jewish and Christian faiths lie the five books of the Torah, a text that has had an enormous influence on Western civilization. Bringing the latest scholarship to a popular audience, Kaminsky and Lohr examine the key debates surrounding how these two religions share this common scripture, while simultaneously illustrating the importance of the Torah in western jurisprudence, ethics, and contemporary conceptions of the family, morality, and even politics.
A unique introduction exploring both Jewish and Christian perspectives
