Description: "The more fundamentalist Christians become, the more anti-Semitic they become." Fact or fiction? Does anti-Jewish sentiment lurk in the hallowed halls of fundamentalist-evangelical premillenial eschatology and prophetic view of the Jewish people? This first comprehensive study of the isssues thoroughly documents the relationships between fundamentalist-evangelicals and Jews from the nineteenth century through World War I and II and the Cold War era of the current century. From conspiracy theories of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries through the Holocaust years, the fascinating primary materials of these complicated movements are brought to life and wed in a lucid, compelling account.
