Explore the intricate and enlightening conversation between scholars Beryl Dov Lerner and Phil Sumpter as they delve into Jewish and Christian interpretations of scripture, covenants, and theological modesty. This engaging debate asks ‘Can we know God?’ and sheds light on the nature of God, the divine-human relationship, and the crucial role covenants play in both traditions.

How do Jewish and Christian perspectives on ethical behaviour and the interpretation of biblical texts converge and diverge? What are the theological implications of the creation story, and how does the nature of God influence human behaviour? Join us to uncover the complexities of understanding God, the significance of the incarnation, and the profound relationship between theology and practice. How do these different perspectives shape our knowledge of God and our approach to ethical living?

Philosopher Berel Dov Lerner got his PhD at Tel Aviv University and now teaches at Western Galilee College. Phil Sumpter got his PhD from the University of Gloucestershire and teaches in the Biblical Theological Academy of Wiedenest, Germany, and Cornerstone Bible College in the Netherlands.
