Comparing Spiritualities Formative Christianity and Judaism on Finding Life and Meeting Death Bruce Chilton and Jacob Neusner - Pennsylvania Trinity 2000 - 140tr. Paperback

`In this book, Jacob Neusner and Bruce Chilton ask simply, `What are experiences both distinctive to the spiritual life of Torah and Christ, respectively, and also accessible to our common humanity?` They examine the experiences of `birth in the faith, death in the faith, and bearing witness to the faith.` Each writer explores the ways in which classical statements of Torah and Christ represent critical moments in a person's life of faith, and offers a comparison of the spiritual piety that each religion teaches and nurtures.`--Jacket
