"Each chapter contains provocative stories of Christians in America who viewed the Hebrew language, and the Jews, either real or mythic, as well as the land of Israel, as utterly different than any other language, people or land." -- American Historical Review, Often conceived of as out of the mainstream, Judaism has shaped the religious and intellectual culture of the United States. Shalom Goldman brings that insight to bear in his elegant narrative of key scholars and writers.(Bruce Chilton, Bard College), "Fascinating study of the intellectual, religious, and political significance of the Hebrew language and culture in the United States. . . . Readable and well illustrated." --Furrow, "Each chapter contains provocative stories of Christians in America who viewed the Hebrew language, and the Jews, either real or mythic, as well as the land of Israel, as utterly different than any other language, people or land." _ American Historical Review, "The notes and bibliography, the readability and the subject of this work make it the best such narrative we have. . . . Likely to stimulate further work." _ Religious Studies Review, "Fascinating study of the intellectual, religious, and political significance of the Hebrew language and culture in the United States. . . . Readable and well illustrated." -- Furrow, "Fascinating study of the intellectual, religious, and political significance of the Hebrew language and culture in the United States. . . .

Synopsis
In a comprehensive examination of how Christian scholars in the United States received, interpreted, and understood Hebrew texts and the Jewish experience, Shalom Goldman explores Hebraism's relationship to American society. By linking history, theology, and literature from the colonial period through the twentieth century, Goldman illuminates the religious and cultural roots of American interest in the Middle East. God's Sacred Tongue is structured around a sequence of biographical and intellectual portraits of individuals including Jonathan Edwards, Isaac Nordheimer, Professor George Bush (an ancestor of President George W. Bush), and twentieth-century literary critic Edmund Wilson. Since the colonial period, America has been perceived as a western Promised Land with emotional, spiritual, and physical links to the Promised Land of biblical history. Goldman gives evidence from scholarship, diplomacy, journalism, the history of higher education, and the arts to show that this perception is linked to the role Hebrew and the Bible have played in American cultural history.The book's final section takes up the story of American Christian Zionism, among whose Protestant adherents political Zionism found much of its strongest support. Religious and cultural figures such as William Rainey Harper and Reinhold Niebuhr are among those who exemplify the centuries-old ties between America, the Land of Promise, and Israel, the Promised Land., In a comprehensive examination of how Christian scholars in the United States received, interpreted, and understood Hebrew texts and the Jewish experience, Shalom Goldman explores Hebraism's relationship to American society.

In an analysis of Hebraism's relationship to American culture, Goldman says that U.S. support for Israel today can be found in the roots of Christian Hebraism going as far back as 17th century America., In a comprehensive examination of how Christian scholars in the United States received, interpreted, and understood Hebrew texts and the Jewish experience, Shalom Goldman explores Hebraism's relationship to American society.
