Yeshua and Levinas

This study investigates the close affinities between two of the world's greatest teachers: Yeshua of Nazareth and Emmanuel Levinas, a twentieth century philosopher. Essentially what they have in common is that they both pointed to a paradigmatic life style in which there is an extraordinary attention to the weak, the oppressed, the persecuted, the stranger, the unwanted. When such attention is lacking, the world witnesses such catastrophes as the Shoah.
