Summary:

EJCR covers a wide range of topics, including, but not limited to theological concepts (e.g., Christology, Excommunication) spiritual and religious practices (e.g., Prayer, Blessing), ritual (Circumcision, Baptism, Dietary Laws), geographic topics (Ashkenaz, Middle East), denominational concepts (Karaites, Reform Judaism) and political and historical issues (Zionism, Antisemitism). The arts play a role as well, looking at medieval depictions of the 'Jews' sow' or typologies such as 'Synagogae/Ecclesia' depictions or the 'wise and the foolish virgins'. The essays are written specifically from the perspectives of Jewish-Christian relations. What we find important is that a synthesis is provided of the discussions in Jewish-Christian dialogue with challenges clearly marked for each theology because of conclusions drawn in this dialogue.
