- Summary
- In this book, a rabbi and a Christian scholar examine moral and ethical issues of our day in the light of their respective traditions. In turn, the authors explore marriage and family values, religious liberty, racial tension and civil rights, war and peace, Islam, and economic justice and ecology.
- Randall Falk and Walter Harrelson bring to these issues the collective wisdom of more than 2,800 years of the quest for understanding how we can respond to the challenge of the prophet Micah: What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? - Mic. 6:8 (NRSV).
