Abstract
This article describes the correspondence and friendship between James Parkes, an Anglican clergyman and founder of the Council of Christians and Jews, and David Tabor, a committed Zionist, in 1939–40. The article explores their discussions and disagreements about Zionism, immigration to Palestine, the fate of European Jewry, minority rights and peace aims. The article considers how this correspondence contributes to our understanding of the scholarly debates about the nature of Anglo-Jewish identity between the wars. The Parkes-Tabor correspondence also provides a detailed and unique example of the complex nature of interfaith dialogue in this period.
