Preaching the Gospels Without Blaming the Jews

Ronald Allen and Clark Williamson

provide a commentary on the Revised

Common Lectionary Gospel readings,

demonstrating how the lections are

continuous with the theology, values,

and practices of Judaism and also

identifying and reflecting on points at

which the lections caricature Jewish

people, practices, and institutions.

About the author

Ronald Allen grew up on the west coast of Vancouver Island. He was involved in the fishing and logging industries before moving on to a career in Corrections working with offenders all over British Columbia. The author has travelled extensively and many of the adventures experienced by our heroes are similar to events encountered during his travels. The book's origin is loosely based on a childhood friend who died tragically in a storm off the norther tip of Vancouver Island. The adventures undertaken by our heroes are envisioned to be the potential life that this friend could have enjoyed were he not taken in his prime.
