Defining the Modern Orthodox Approach to Interfaith Dialogue

Revisiting Joseph B. Soloveitchik’s seminal 1964 essay “Confrontation,” which sets out parameters for interfaith dialogue—forbidding some kinds and encouraging others—Meir Soloveichik investigates its underlying theological argument that Jews are destined to constant tension between their identity as “a people apart” and their obligation to engage with the surrounding world. He then discusses the essay’s impact and its implications in light of American notions of religious freedom. (Interview by Eric Cohen; audio, about 1 hour.)
