Review Quotes:

"[E]xcellent . . . ."--Jewish Review of Books

"There is one thing that everyone--not just scholars, but informed members of the Jewish community--knows about Rosenzweig, and that one thing is false. Nobody who is interested in twentieth-century Jewish thought, whether from a Jewish, Christian, atheistic, or neutral perspective, will be able to afford to ignore this book."--Paul Franks, Yale University

"The book's scholarship . . . sets the proper tone in understanding the personal searching, frustration, and successful merging of religion and philosophy of the celebrated author of The Star of Redemption. . . . Recommended."--Choice

"[Pollock's] book is a welcome contribution that helps us better appreciate Rosenzweig's engagement with Marcionism and its role in the development of his thought."--H-Judaic

"This work sheds a new and compelling light on the trajectory of Rosenzweig's thought and is highly recommended to undergraduates, graduates, and scholars of Jewish studies."--Religious Studies Review
