Item Description:

When Martin Luther hung his 95 points of protest on the door of the cathedral at Wittenberg, he not only revolutionized Christianity, he irrevocably changed Christian relations with the Jews. By reclaiming the importance of the Bible to Christianity, Luther, a zealous anti-Semite, created the theological contradiction of love of the Jewish Bible despite hatred of the Jewish people. Rabbi Wein contrasts the theologies of Catholicism and Protestantism and describes their attitudes toward the Jews.
