What is The Condition of Jewish belief : a symposium about?

At the height of the God is dead controversy in the early 1960s, the editors of Commentary, a leading journal of Jewish intellectual thought, submitted to a group of prominent rabbis, theologians, and religious leaders a list of questions, which may be summarized as - In what sense do you believe the Torah to be divine revelation? - In what sense do you believe that the Jews are the chosen people of God? - Is Judaism the one true religion? - Does the so-called God is dead question have any relevance to Judaism? Compiled twenty-five years ago, this book constitutes a major statement on the condition of Jewish belief. As such, it is a vital historical document, an important reaffirmation of the major formulations of Jewish religious thought.
