American Jews And The Separationist Faith, Gerard V. Bradley Dec 1994

American Jews And The Separationist Faith, Gerard V. Bradley

Journal Articles

D. Dallin, Editor, American Jews and the Separationist Faith

David Dallin, an ordained rabbi and professor of American Jewish history at the University of Hartford, writes in his introduction to this important book, "American Jewry [no longer] speaks with one 'official' voice on the issues or religion and public life." [9] Dallin has been for several years at the center of an increasingly influential group of American Jews engaged in a "substantial reexamination" of the separationist faith. Other members of this group, all contributors to this volume, include Hadley Arkes, David Novak, Midge Decter, Marc Gellman, and Jerry Mueller. They …

A Jewish Voice In The Public Square, Gerard V. Bradley Jan 1994

A Jewish Voice In The Public Square, Gerard V. Bradley

Journal Articles

David Novak: Jewish Social Ethics. (New York: Oxford University Press, 1992. Pp. xii, 252. $45.00.)

Jewish participation in American public life has been either genuinely or constructively de-Judaized. (Admittedly, many orthodox Jews - the Hasidim among them - have steered clear altogether of the public square.) "Genuinely" de-Judaized Jews are simply those like Frankfurter who have a thoroughly secular outlook. "Constructively" de-Judaized Jews include the orthodox, observant Pfeffer. For them religious conviction (and practice) are private matters, checked at the entrance to the "naked public square." Quite obviously, Jews had good reason, especially in 1947, to prefer a secular …


The Bible, Congregational Leaders, And Moral Conversation, Patrick R. Keifert Oct 1993

The Bible, Congregational Leaders, And Moral Conversation, Patrick R. Keifert

Faculty Publications

No matter how old an observation, it remains nonetheless true: We tend to remember the preacher more than the sermon, the teacher more than the lecture. Perhaps that is all we have recently learned in a preliminary study of twelve congregations in the Southwestern Minnesota Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (SW Synod). However, there are some nuances that raise very important questions for theological education in seminaries and congregations—and, even more important, insights for the role of leaders and their use of Scripture in the moral conversations within congregations. In short, we have found from dozens of …

Exorcizing Everson, Gerard V. Bradley Oct 1988

Exorcizing Everson, Gerard V. Bradley

Journal Articles

Daniel Dreisbach: Real Threat and Mere Shadow: Religious Liberty and the First Amendment. Crossway Books. 351 pp. $15.00 (paper).

No aspect of constitutional law sports a bigger profile these days than that concerning religion, or "Church and state." Academics debate it prodigiously, lawyers litigate it furiously, and judges issue opinions on the subject with clockwork regularity. But this commotion is hardly esoteric. Pat Robertson's candidacy stirred everyone's emotions precisely because each of us has a strong sense of just how religious politics should be. George Bush clumsily attested to this popular sensitivity. What sustained bomber pilot Bush …
