Editorial reviews

In 2004, Mel Gibson’s film The Passion of the Christ stirred much debate about Christians’ attitudes toward Jews regarding Christ’s crucifixion. Leave it to the esteemed 92nd Street Y of New York to attempt to cut through the rancor and delve deeper.

In this audiobook recording of a live presentation that occurred in 2004, Episcopalian journalist Jon Meacham leads a discussion between Eugene Korn (a rabbi who works for greater inter-faith dialogue), and John Pawlikowski (a Catholic priest who works on the same mission) about the issues surrounding the issues surrounding the controversial film. Film buffs and those interested in religion will find this discussion totally relevant today.
