A guilt-ridden Christian thinker reflects on the Holocaust and its implications for Christians' attitude to Jews. Invoking the First Commandment, the author declares his object to be to express faith in a post-Holocaust Christ without the taint of theologically inspired anti-Semitism. He traces this back to the New Testament and concludes, speaking for Christians: "The only place we can reach an intelligent common understanding lies in the history of revelation."
