The Holocaust and the Christian World examines the role of the Christian churches during the Holocaust and its consequences for Christian thought and practice in the contemporary world. The book presents a broad range of perspectives from European, North American and Israeli scholars, Christian and Jewish, about individuals and institutions in Nazi-occupied Europe during WWII and the Holocaust. While The Holocaust and the Christian World does not whitewash the conduct of the Christian churches during the Shoah, neither is it intentionally provocative in its criticism. The Holocaust and the Christian World will confront the uninitiated and inform the interested.
