In his work, Rabbi Newman documents the struggle between Christianity and Judaism. The Rabbi also includes information on Jewish Influence in fomenting the Protestant revolt against the Catholic Church, which led to the freeing of Jews from Church strictures and mainstreaming them into the political and social life of Christendom, particularly in Protestant countries. Newman even takes up the topic of Jewish influence in Puritan New England. All in all, this is an important book for those wishing to understand the mutual antipathies which have beset Christians and Jews.

Judaism has always been of great significance to Christianity but this relationship has also been marked by complexity and ambivalence. The emergence of new Protestant confessions in the Reformation had significant consequences for how Jews were viewed and treated. In this wide-ranging account, Kenneth Austin examines Christian attitudes toward Jews, the Hebrew language, and Jewish learning, arguing that they have much to tell us about the Reformation and its priorities—and have important implications for how we think about religious pluralism today.

Excerpt from Influence of Judaism on the Protestant Reformation In a Lecture on Science, delivered not long since at the Royal Institution, and republished in the Eclectic of October, 1866, the Rev. C. Kingsley, speaking of the immense benefit mankind derived from the "brave and patient investigation of physical facts" ever since the latter part of the seventeenth century, and showing that the eighteenth century, "by boldly observing and analyzing facts," did more for the welfare of mankind "than the whole fifteen centuries before it;" goes on to say "that this boldness towards facts increased in proportion as Europe became indoctrinated with the Jewish literature; and that notably such men as Kepler, Newton, Berkely, Spinoza, Leibnitz, Descartes, in whatsoever else they differed, agreed in this: that their attitude towards nature was derived from the teachings of the Jewish sages. I believe that we are not yet fully aware how much we owe to the Jewish mind, in the gradual emancipation of the human intellect." What the learned lecturer here says of the influence of the Jewish mind on the development of the human intellect in general, may, with even more propriety, be said of the influence of the Jewish mind in bringing about that great and memorable event, forming a most remarkable epoch in the history of Christianity and Christendom - the Protestant Reformation. Few indeed, if any, are aware how much Christianity is indebted to Judaism, not only for its birth eighteen centuries ago, but even for its subsequent regeneration in the sixteenth century. Dr. Graetz, the able and thorough Jewish historian, whose oral instructions the translator himself has had the privilege of enjoying while pursuing his theological studies at the Seminary of Breslau, deserves the credit of being the first who has clearly and satisfactorily pointed out the hitherto hidden, yet potent influence which the literature of the Hebrews has exerted, more or less directly, on the great Reform movement. In the ninth volume of his Geschichte der Juden, Leipaic, 1866, the author traces, with his wonted accuracy and profound research, the events immediately preceding the Reformation; which events, though directly related to the history and literature of Israel, paved the way for that decisive change of public sentiment in reference to the authority of the Pope and the Catholic Church, ending in the establishment of the Protestan Church. It is this part of the author's work, constituting chapters 3 to 6, inclusive, in the original, which is now presented to the English reader, the translation having been originally undertaken at the special request of the Rev. Dr. Wise, the well-known editor of The Israelite, in the columns of which it was first published. As regards the rendering itself, the translator would simply say that, while endeavoring to give an exact and faithful copy of the original, he has occasionally taken the liberty to abridge the narrative when the original would have appeared too prolix in an English dress, and now and then, also, embodied in the text the substance of what in the original is stated in the notes.
