The Misunderstood Jew: The Church and the Scandal of the Jewish Jesus by Amy-Jill Levine
In the The Misunderstood Jew, scholar Amy-Jill Levine helps Christians and Jews understand the "Jewishness" of Jesus so that their appreciation of him deepens and a greater interfaith dialogue can take place. Levine's humor and informed truth-telling provokes honest conversation and debate about how Christians and Jews should understand Jesus, the New Testament, and each other.
Amy-Jill Levine is a University Professor of New Testament and Jewish Studies at Vanderbilt University and the Mary Jane Werthan Professor of Jewish Studies at Vanderbilt University, as well as an Affiliated Professor at the Cambridge Centre for the Study of Jewish-Christian Relations. The Misunderstood Jew: The Church and the Scandal of the Jewish Jesus (2006), Short Tales by Jesus: The Enigmatic Parables of a Controversial Rabbi (2014), the edited 13-volume Feminist Companions to the New Testament and Early Christian Literature (2001), and the co-edited The Jewish Annotated New Testament (2011) are among her many books.
