Abstract
"Modern religious history painfully indicates that evangelical Protestants and American Jews have largely remained aloof from one another. Especially since the twenties, American religious life has been characterized by a noticeable lack of communication and dialogue between evangelicals and non-evangelical groups. To be sure, until most recently if one were to suggest that meaningful interreligious discussion could be pursued between American Jews and evangelical Christians, it would have been "rejected out of hand."' But today we hopefully stand at the threshold of a new era. It is my conviction that we must heed the words of evangelical writer Paul Carlson, who states in his book 0 Christian! °Jew! that both communities must now enter into a "deeper understanding of their Akeida—or binding—to one another. For the survival of the one is eternally linked to the survival of the other'"
