How much did DietrichBonhoeffer know of theHolocaust, and what did he do tohelp the Jews? Should Bonhoefferbe considered one of the "Righteousamong the Nations"?

In this welcome sequel tohis acclaimed The BonhoefferPhenomenon, Stephen Haynestakes up these vexing andcontroversial questions. While Bonhoeffer spoke outagainst mistreatment of the Jews as early as 1933 in aradio broadcast, his own reflection on Jewish identityin Christian theology and on the plight of the Jewsdeveloped considerably over the next dozen years. Alwaysforthright yet fair, Haynes analyzes the historical recordand Bonhoeffer's maturing theology and shows howBonhoeffer's self-critical theology relates to the lateradvent of post-Holocaust theologies, with their sharplyposed challenges to traditional Christian supersessionism.

Industry Reviews

"Stephen Haynes has done it again! Following on his encyclopedic-like analysis of the astounding variety of interpretations that went into creating 'The Bonhoeffer Phenomenon, ' Haynes now trains his theological and investigative talents on one of the thorniest problems in Bonhoeffer interpretation: his stereotypical but offensive-to-Jews statements on Judaism, his stance on the anti-Jewish legislation in Nazi Germany, and his place in postwar Holocaust studies. . . . Was Bonhoeffer a prime, courageous defender of Jews in Nazi Germany? Or was he, as one critic avers, merely the best of a bad lot? Haynes does Bonhoeffer research a great service as he exposes Bonhoeffer's theology on these issues in their proper context and in his exact words with all their significance for the present-day Jewish-Christian dialogue." -- Geffrey B. Kelly "Ph.D., LL.D., Professor of Systematic Theology, La Salle University, Philadelphia, PA, Former Presi"
