MARKISH, SHIMON; COHEN, ARTHUR A. (AFTERWORD). Erasmus And The Jews. The University of Chicago Press, Chicago and London: 1986. 0226505901 / 9780226505909 h Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Erasmus of Rotterdam was the greatest Christian humanist scholar of the Northern European Renaissance, a correspondent of Sir Thomas More and many other leraned men of his time, known to his contemporaries and to posterityfor the sublety of his thought and depth of learning. He was also, according to some modern writers, an anti-Semite. In this complete analysis of all of Erasmus' writings on Jews and Judaism, Shimon Markish asserts that the accusation cannot be sustained. For Markish, to ask whether Erasmus was a friend or enemy of the Jews is to ask a modern question of a sixteenth-century man, whose attitude can best be called "asemitism." Erasmus' chief preoccupation was with the future of "the true philosophy of Christ"; he had little interest in the Jewish community of his own time. Erasmus and the Jews discusses Erasmus' critique of Mosaic law and his view of the conflict between "Judaism" as legalistic morality and Jesus' teaching; his judgment on the Pharisees of Jesus' time; his emphasis on the importance of the study of Hebrew; and his opinions of sixteenth-century Jews. Translated into English from the unpublished manuscript by Anthony Olcott. Includes an Index. Price:

COHEN, STUART A. The Scroll Or The Sword?: Dilemmas Of Religion And Military Service In Israel. Harwood Academic Publishers, Amsterdam: 1997. 9057020831 / 9789057020834 h Hardcover, no dustjacket. Very good condition. Israel's defense forces have traditionally been considered immune to divisive tensions within Israeli society at large. Relations between religious and secular troops, were for many years thought to be harmonious and consensual. The Scroll or the Sword ? demonstrates that this is no longer the case. The first detailed analysis of contemporary Jewish religious attitudes towards armed service in Israel, this volume draws on a wide range of classical and modern sources to illustrate the variety of current theological challenges to Israel's military cohesion. Cohen's study is essential reading for an understanding of such issues as: the reaction of the national religious troops and their rabbinic leadership to the current peace process; the attitudes of orthodox and ultra-orthodox Jewry to compulsory conscription; and the concerns generated in secular Israeli circles by the existence of units composed of specifically religious personnel.
