'''Supersessionism''' (pejoratively referred to as "'''replacement theology'''") is the traditional, longstanding Christian [[Theology|theological]] belief that [[Christianity]] is the antitypical fulfillment of Mosaic [[Judaism]]'s "shadow" aspects concerning sacrificial  (- which of to apply today are in doubt even per Judaism) and ceremonial ordinances, whereby literal connotations in the Old Testament typified a spiritual application revealed in greater, full clarity at and after the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. In its more radical form, supersessionism maintains that the Jews as a literal nation/entity are no longer considered to be God's chosen people in any sense following the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 A.D., emphasizing Jesus's words, "your house is left unto you desolate."<ref>[https://biblehub.com/matthew/23-38.htm Matthew 23:38].</ref> The Church is the People of God and the New Israel, to whom alone the promises of God belong. The more general understanding of this view in a milder form is therefore that Jews who deny that Jesus is the Jewish Messiah fall short of their calling as God's Chosen people, but God has not entirely cast them off as His Chosen, to whom the promises also belong through Jesus, the Christ (Anointed) Son of [[David]].{{cquote|He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High;<br>and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David,<br>and he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever;<br>and of his kingdom there will be no end.<br>—Luke 1:32-33 RSVCE}}Because Christ Jesus is ruler over the house of Jacob, the Lord Jesus rules the history and destiny of the Jews even now, although they are unaware of it.

Many Zionists (both Christians and Jews) claim that supersessionism's emphasis on total egalitarianism—thereby invalidating claims of (literal) Jews as a "special people" by birthright ethnicity—is intrinsically antisemitic and inspired Nazi Germany's "Positive Christianity." However, Nazi Germany's perversion of Christianity explicitly rejected supersessionism for its emphasis of Christianity's Jewish foundation, instead drawing inspiration from the neo-Marcionite, liberal views of [[Immanuel Kant]].<ref>Wojciech Kozyra (2022), [https://eidos.uw.edu.pl/files/pdf/eidos/2022-01/eidos_19_kozyra.pdf Kant, Anti-Supersessionism, and the Holocaust], pp. 80–96.
