Overview

Dr. Solomon Schechter, president of the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York, was known all over the world as an authority on Judaism. In Some Aspects of Rabbinic Theology, Schechter seeks to provide a more general understanding of broader aspects of rabbinic theology, rather than a systematic theological examination. The text presents a Jewish stance grounded in orthodoxy to discuss what rabbis believe about God and Israel, the visible and invisible kingdom of God, the law, sin, forgiveness, and other significant theological topics.

This text is useful for Christians who interact with Jewish people and struggle to find footing for religious discussions. While there are a number of points in which Some Aspects of Rabbinic Theology strongly aligns with Christian teachings, the text also illuminates key points in which Christian beliefs differ, such as the Jewish doctrines of sin and forgiveness.

In the Logos edition, this valuable volume is enhanced by amazing functionality. Scripture citations link directly to English translations, and important terms link to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and a wealth of other resources in your digital library. Peform powerful searches by topic or Scripture reference help you find exactly what you’re looking for—such as every instance of “sin,” “forgiveness,” or “Messiah.” Tablet and mobile apps let you take the discussion with you. With Logos Bible Software, the most efficient and comprehensive research tools are in one place, so you get the most out of your study.

Top Highlights

“The task I set myself was to give a presentation of Rabbinic opinion on a number of theological topics as offered by the Rabbinic literature, and forming an integral part of the religious consciousness of the bulk of the nation or ‘Catholic Israel.’” (Page viii)

“The Mishnah, which was compiled about the beginning of the third century of the c.e., consists of sixty-one (or sixty-three) tractates, of which only one, known by the title of ‘The Chapters of the Fathers,’ deals with moral and spiritual matters in the narrower sense of these terms.” (Page 2)

Praise for the Print Edition

We would recommend [Some Aspects of Rabbinic Theology] to every Christian student, but especially to those of our readers who, as pastors, have orthodox Jews in the neighborhood of their churches. It is their duty to include them in their pastoral work, but they cannot reach them until they know what these Jews believe.
