Christianity and Judaism: an essay

Taken from The Internet Archive.
TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE.
The following pamphlet, which was published in German for the first time about two years ago, comes from the pen of a Christian scholar who possesses the rare qualification of being able to do justice to a faith that, in many vital points, is in sharp conflict with his own, without in the smallest degree abating or understating his personal conviction of the truth and superiority of the religion he himself professes. 
The best evidence of the truth of this statement that I can quote is an avowal from the other side. In a long and interesting notice of Dr. Dalman's little book—which he calls a 'most remarkable pamphlet '—Mr. C. G. Montefiore says
"Dr. Dalman is not merely acquainted with Talmud and Midrash, but he is also familiar with modern Jewish literature. He knows the feelings and opinions of modern Jews, both of the orthodox and reform divisions. And yet this enlightened, unprejudiced, and well-informed man is an earnest evangehcal Christian, convinced of the superiority and truth of his own creed, and while quite fair to the other side, an uncompromising exponent of what he believes to be its weakness and deficiencies. A truly remarkable combination."
