A VISION OF LOVE FOR CHRISTIANS AND JEWS details how I found my own way to peace and how that can inform others, both Christians and Jews, who live in the aftermath of the Holocaust. Readers will learn to deal with each other peacefully and with mutual support for living in the society we share.Deriving anything positive from the Holocaust has been described as "drawing honey from the rock." The process is daunting, yet several authors have attempted it. Some have extensive academic credentials. Mine are more humble and more earthy. I am a Holocaust survivor, and actually a reluctant explorer of "honey in the rock." Yet after the searing experiences of my youth, I have felt driven to explore why two religions, so similar in origin, so contiguous, so founded in the search for our link to the divine, came to such disastrous enmity. I believe that if we can't fathom what has contributed to the chasm between Christianity and Judaism, we may face another disaster like the Holocaust.A VISION OF LOVE came out of this urgent personal pursuit. I think it is of vital interest to present it to both faith communities. Broad-thinking Christians need to hear how anti-Jewish sentiment has hurt us and continues to do so. Jews need to read the book because we have slipped into a generally passive and inactive mode vis-à-vis Christians. Most of us have not taken note of--much less taken hope from-- efforts centered in the Vatican to redress the evils of church-sponsored Jew-hatred.
