| Halachah and Reform Judaism |
| This essay tries to describe some lines of demarcation between the holy and the profane, the permitted and the prohibited. Although we may be living in a "post-halachic" age, we must still take halachah seriously, for Jewish law, even when no longer operative, still forms the very foundation of our tradition. |

| Jews and Gentiles: A Changing Relationship |
| Anti-Semitism is a central pre-occupation of assimilationists. As hard as they try to be like the others, the others make sure the Jews remain different. Observant Jews of whatever denomination have enough positive reasons for being Jewish to contain the hatred, even the persecution, by non-Jews. |

| Christians, Jews and Anti-Semitism Now |
| Christian-Jewish dialogue is of little concern to most exponents of contemporary Judaism and a stepchild of Jewish creativity in our time. But in the days of Franz Rosenzweig, Leo Baeck and other giants of twentieth-century Jewish thought, it was central. |

| Works Righteousness and the Synagogue of Satan |
| Rethinking Christian Caricatures of 1st Century Judaism. The Christian story cannot be told, in classroom or pulpit, without reference to "the Jews". In the last 50 years, many crude racist stereotypes have almost entirely disappeared from the language and mindset of popular Christianity, but the pejorative depiction of "the Jews""in much of the New Testament ensures that negative attitudes to Jews and Judaism continue to be promulgated as part of the Christian message. |
