Catholic/Jewish Dialogue: Controversies and Corrections

Forty years of Catholic-Jewish "dialogue" have raised more questions than most Catholics can answer with confidence. Have the two religions come closer together, or been irreparably split apart? Did Vatican II change the face of Catholic-Jewish relations, or restate traditional teaching in modern language? Do the Jews remain the "Chosen People," or has that title passed to the Catholic Church? Can the Jews be saved in their own religion, or must they convert to Christianity? Is the New Testament "anti-semitic," or does it accurately explain the antagonism between Judaism and Christianity? Does Old Testament prophecy predict the reestablishment of national Israel, or do these prophecies apply figuratively to the Church? Will there be a mass conversion of Jews near the end of time, or should we expect something less?

These questions, and many more, are taken up and answered in Catholic/Jewish Dialogue: Controversies and Corrections.
