The nations that know thee not : ancient Jewish attitudes towards other religions
Robert Goldenberg
Explores the malleable Jewish attitude toward other religions in the ancient world. Recounts how at certain times in the past Judaism was accepting of paganism while at other times it mounted attacks on other nations based largely on religious hostility. Goldenberg (Judaic studies, State U. of New York at Stony Brook) also argues that the ambiguous attitude of the ancient Jews towards other religions ultimately impacted the Christian Church's doctrines on the matter, primarily through the Old Testament.
