For many Christians, the Jewish religion after Christ has seemed vague, mysterious, and even irrelevant. First published in 1907, W. O. E. Oesterley and G. H. Box’s classic The Religion and Worship of the Synagogue filled a void in scholarship on the Jewish tradition written for a Christian audience. It is a handbook for students of comparative religion, Christian theologians, and all those “who take a human interest in all that is human for its own sake.” Oesterley and Box paint a picture of Judaism as a whole from the first century to the twentieth, aiming to present “a clear and intelligible and just outline of Judaism” and enrich the perspective of Christian scholars with the full complexity and value of the Jewish religion.
