Description

Explore one of the most fundamental elements of Jewish faith and identity with this scholarly work from the Routledge Jewish Studies Series. The concept of the Jews as a chosen people serves as a foundation for much of Jewish self-definition, yet its meaning has shifted significantly across different eras. This book provides a deep look into how the idea of chosenness has evolved from the ancient world through the challenges of modernity and into the Post-Holocaust era. By analyzing a wide range of biblical, ancient, rabbinic, and modern Jewish literature, the author offers a clear path to understanding this central doctrine. Readers will learn how this concept has not remained static. Instead, the text demonstrates how the idea has undergone constant change, adapting to the historical contexts of the people it defines. This makes it an essential resource for students, historians, and anyone interested in the theological and social transformations of the Jewish religion.
