Understanding the Jewish Jesus

Amy-Jill “AJ” Levine, a Jewish scholar of the New Testament and
author of The Misunderstood Jew: The Church and the Scandal of the
Jewish Jesus, sits down with Zac and Ashley at the Cathedral Church
of St. John the Divine, an Anglican Cathedral in New York City.
It’s a dynamic interfaith conversation in an ecumenical setting,
and AJ helps break open Jesus’ Jewish identity and context for the
hosts. They discuss:  AJ’s Jewish upbringing in Massachusetts
and how she became interested in studying the New Testament Common
anti-Jewish tropes and misconceptions in New Testament
interpretation How interfaith dialogue can help Catholics and Jews
better understand each other and ourselves And a final reminder
