Viac o knihe

Exploring the impact of Vatican II's Nostra Aetate 4, this book examines how Paul's writings have historically shaped negative perceptions of Jews and Judaism. It highlights the church's call for a reimagined relationship between Catholics and Jews as "brothers" in an "everlasting covenant." Despite this, the text delves into the ongoing negative portrayals of Jews in contemporary translations of Paul's letters, revealing a tension between traditional interpretations and the call for reconciliation and understanding in modern Christianity.
