The book treats three topics which revise and clarify the author’s views in light of critics and further thought. The book includes a new concept of the Jews as God’s Chosen People for our times; a reply to an argument for the reliability of Torah history; and an approach, not a solution, to the problem of evil for troubled believers and want to be believers UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9798887191942 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9798887191942 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9798887191942/original ER -
