Messianic Judaism: A Controversial New Belief
By Carol Harris-Shapiro
Lecturer, Temple University
In her groundbreaking new book, Carol Harris-Shapiro explores the controversial belief system of Messianic Judaism. This rapidly growing movement combines elements of Christianity and Judaism, and has sparked intense debate among both religious and secular communities.
Through in-depth interviews with Messianic Jews and a close examination of their beliefs and practices, Harris-Shapiro sheds light on this complex and fascinating movement. She argues that Messianic Judaism is not simply a new form of Christianity, but rather a unique and distinct religious tradition that is challenging traditional notions of both Judaism and Christianity.
Harris-Shapiro's book is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of religion, culture, and identity. It is a timely and important work that will help to shape the ongoing conversation about Messianic Judaism.
