During this time, Irving Greenberg developed a unique theology that anticipated David Hollinger's notion of postethnicity and represents a compelling understanding of contemporary American Jewish identity. Greenberg's covenantal theology and image of God idea combine into what Kleinberg refers to as Hybrid Judaism. Central to Greenberg's theology is recognition of the transformative power of encounter in an open society, heavily influenced by his own encounters across Jewish denominational boundaries and through his participation in the Christian-Jewish dialogue movement. Presented here for the first time, Greenberg's theology of Hybrid Judaism has great relevance for our understanding of American Jewish identity in the twenty-first century.Studies in Orthodox Judaism.RabbisUnited StatesBiographyMulticulturalismReligious aspectsJudaismRabbisMulticulturalismReligious aspectsJudaism.296.832092NY 4900rvkKleinberg Darren1527728Dollinger Marc1527729MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798980003321Hybrid judaism3770831UNINA
