❞ كتاب The Jewish Response to Missionaries ❝ ⏤ Rabbi Bentzion Kravitz

For many years I have been familiar with the fine international
organization, Jews for Judaism. Its founder and West Coast
director, Rabbi Bentzion Kravitz, has worked arduously within
the Jewish community to offer counseling services and educational
material to counter the arguments of missionary claims. The work
of Jews for Judaism has had a major impact in disseminating the
truths embodied in Jewish tradition.
As a scholar of the history of Christianity and comparative
religion, I can affirm that Rabbi Kravitz is quite correct: Many forms
of evangelical Christianity target Jews for conversion and, in some
cases, use questionable tactics to do so. As a teacher of religious
studies, theology, and ethics at Stanford, Princeton, the University

of California, and a number of other universities, I have dealt first-
hand with the theological issues of messianism, salvation, vicarious

atonement and the like.
Needless to say, these questions, raised among Jewish students
both in the lecture halls and outside of class, can be very challenging.
In fact, one of the greatest issues impacting the Jewish collegiate
today is the threat of manipulative and deceptive missionary
practices.
From a scholar’s perspective, one of the most dangerous and
confusing of these tactics is the way missionaries use the Hebrew
Bible. This is, to be sure, nothing new. As many scholars have
demonstrated, Christian groups from the beginning re-interpreted
the Hebrew Bible in order to support their claims that Christianity
superseded Judaism. But this is not the Jewish perspective and not
even the claim of all Christians.
