Summary This is the first book on Paul Tillich and Judaism, which is a neglected aspect of Tillich's thought. Tillich's dialectical and theological history of religion is examined in key primary sources to show how he maintains continuity between Judaism and Christianity. Tillich's positive theology of Judaism contrasts sharply with the many complex, negative ways in which Judaism is portrayed in Western thought.
