Judaism and Christian faith

This article presents the French translation of Chapter III of Lev Gillet's work *Communion in the Messiah* (1942), devoted to the theological relations between Judaism and Christianity. Proceeding through comparative and synthetic study, Gillet examines the main points of divergence and convergence between the two traditions: the opposition between Greek and Hebrew categories of thought, the question of monotheism in relation to Christian Christology and Pneumatology, as well as the Jewish notions of Memra, Shekinah, Ruah-ha-Kodesh, and messianic redemption. The central idea is that Christianity carries a deeply Jewish core, and that fundamental rabbinic concepts constitute prefigurations of the Christian doctrines of the Trinity, the Incarnation, and Forgiveness. The contribution of the article is to propose a "Hebrew Christology" capable of grounding a renewed theological dialogue between the two traditions, by showing that their apparent divergences rest in part on differences of language rather than of substance.
