About this Quote

This quote by Lionel Blue talks to the differences in between Christianity and Judaism. For Christians, Jesus is viewed as the only manner in which God has fully revealed himself. This indicates that Jesus is viewed as the only way to really understand and experience God. For Jews, nevertheless, this can not be the case. Jews do not think that Jesus is the only method to experience God, and instead think that God has actually exposed himself in many different methods. This quote highlights the distinctions in between Christianity and Judaism, and how each faith has its own distinct method of understanding and experiencing God. It also works as a pointer that, despite our distinctions, we can still appreciate and value each other's beliefs.
