Holy Russia, Sacred Israel" examines how Russian religious thinkers, both
Jewish and Christian, conceived of Judaism, Jewry and the 'Old Testament'
philosophically, theologically and personally at a time when the Messianic
element in Russian consciousness was being stimulated by events ranging from
the pogroms of the 1880s, through two Revolutions and World Wars, to exile in
Western Europe. An attempt is made to locate the boundaries between the Jewish and Christian, Russian and Western, Gnosticpagan and Orthodox elements in Russian thought in this period. The author reflects personally on how the heritage of these thinkers - little analyzed or translated in the West - can help Orthodox (and other) Christians respond to Judaism (including 'Messianic
Judaism'), Zionism, and Christian anti-Semitism today.
