Description should be: This ground-breaking book presents a new theology of the Jews as God’s Chosen People, addressing issues of self-serving ethnocentric supremacy, cultural isolation, and the defamation of religions other than Judaism.

Gellman suggests a new approach to inter-religious understanding from a Jewish point of view, and examines the impact of his proposal on traditional Jewish liturgy.
