The differential acceleration between the earth and the moon in general relativity is derived from Estabrook's (1969) equations by treating the sun, earth, and moon as point masses. The relativistic perturbations of the geocentric motion of the moon are given as a semianalytical series with an accuracy of 0.000001 arcsec (1 mm). The results are shown to be in good agreement with results obtained by a different method of integrating the equations of motion. It is noted that the perturbations are to be added to the Newtonian part of the ELP 2000 solution for the geocentric motion of the moon's center of mass.
