The Jewish Position on Other Religions

By Sina Cohen

Judaism is arguably the first monotheistic religion in the world. Since its inception, many have attempted to challenge it and convert its followers. Some of these challenges still exist today. But why did Jews remain Jews? Why didn't they follow Jesus and Muhammad, who later appeared with new religions? What is the Jewish view of other religions? Sina Cohen provides the answers historically given to these questions and clearly responds to the claims made by others against Judaism, by offering old and new approaches to ensure the Jewish voice is present in the debate. The majority of this primer focuses on the Jewish responses to Christianity and Islam, but also delves into the Jewish approaches to Eastern Religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism. For scholarship, interfaith dialogue, and secular or religious readerships, this book will prove to be an essential guide for an understanding of the Jewish position on other religions.
