I would love to be there and audit the course, but I am not going to

George Warnock has an interesting treatment of the intertwining of
Judaism and Christianity in "The Feast of Tabernacles" (1951)<br>

OK, I'm going to have to read it. I'm teaching a History of
Christianity course in the Religious Studies Department this fall, and
in fact there's been some interesting academic work in the last decade
on the inter-mixture of Judaism and Christianity ca. 200-500CE. I hope
I have students au courant enough to ask about Sand & the the early
relationship between Judaism and Christianity. --CGE<br>

<div>Hi Mort,</div>

<div>I'm more than half-way through it, and it's fascinating,
although often tough going. It's also very well-written,
well-translated, or both. I think it gets at historical truths, but
more interestingly (as Adam points out) at historiographical truths
from 19th century Germany, through the origins of Zionism, to the
present. What's done is done, and Israel "exists." But it wouldn't hurt
if people understood the implications of the likelihood that the
Palestinians are descendants of the Judaeans of antiquity, and that
Jews like you and me are almost certainly not. It also says a lot about
the early relationship between Judaism and Christianity that is not
well known.</div>

<base>David,

<div>Thanks for sending this along. Have you read Sand's book?
Opinions? There are many on the Amazon web site for this book. Of
course, how to distinguish the politics from the "truth" is a problem
seen there. </div>
