Focusing on positive Catholic perspectives towards Jews in the sixteenth century, this collection presents eight historical-theological studies. It highlights influential figures like Georg Witzel, whose praise for the Hebrew language is translated into English for the first time, alongside other notable Hebraists such as Johann Reuchlin and Matthaeus Adrianus. These contributions are juxtaposed against the negative sentiments expressed by Johann Pfefferkorn and Martin Luther, illuminating a complex interplay of ideas during a tumultuous period.
