The Relation Between Judaism and Christianity - Kathryn Cusack - Bog

Christianity is an Abrahamic monotheistic religion founded on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. The four largest branches of Christianity are the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Catholic Church, Protestantism, and the Oriental Orthodox Church. Judaism is an ethnic, Abrahamic and monotheistic religion that encompasses the Jewish people's collective culture, civilization, and religious and legal tradition. They both accept the Hebrew Scriptures as the authoritative Word of God; though, Christianity also embraces the New Testament. Furthermore, Protestant-Jewish religious encounters have shaped anti-Semitism, Protestant philosemitic post-Holocaust theology and Jewish Reform movement.
