OverviewAbraham's Promise presents a selection of important writings by noted Jewish philosopher-theologian Michael Wyschogrod, who is widely admired for his singular contributions to Jewish-Christian relations.

An introductory essay by editor R. Kendall Soulen sets Wyschogrod's career and writings in context. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Michael Wyschogrod , R.
