However, whilst, Jerome freely admitted his hatred of the Jews and their faith. His caustic rhetoric bolstered the Christian church's displacement of the Jews, however it turns out to oppose his stream towards appreciating Jewish assets. This ebook illuminates Jerome's contradictory character, proposes an answer, and explores avenues for present Christian and Jewish family members in mild of Jerome's model.
"People usually quote the Fathers once they are handy to push a private agenda. Jerome has been pointed out either as a harsh opponent of the Jews and likewise as a sincere advocate of the Hebraica veritas. invoice Krewson recognizes this obtrusive rigidity in a close exam of the Bethlehem scholar's writings and uncovers a extra nuanced Jerome 'who explored and elevated the borders of Christian indebtedness to the Jews.' We should still pay shut consciousness to his insightful analysis."
--William Varner, Professor of religious study, The Master's University
"The ever enigmatic, continually arguable Jerome comes in the course of the pages of Krewson's textual content as a problem for Jewish-Christian kinfolk then and now. We see Jerome at his paradoxical most sensible: plundering the 'treasures of the Jews' for his interpretation of Scripture and his Vulgate while he perpetuates the supersessionism of his day. Krewson presents a stimulating case research and catalyst for ongoing discussion among Jews and Christians."
