Christological and Soteriological Reflections in the Wake of Half a Century of Intense and Improved Jewish-Christian Relations

Author

  • Jesper Svartvik

Summary, in English

This article seeks to explore how Christian self-understanding has changed as Jewish-Christian relations have enhanced and improved during the last half-century. To what extent are traditional Christological and soteriological models and motifs discussed, defined, redefined, refined or even refuted? Three issues are discussed: the need to (a) go beyond bipolarity (Judaism vis-à-vis Christianity etc.), (2) articulate a creative Christology, (3) express a deutero-Augustinian soteriology.
