Items related to Worship and Ethics: A Study in Rabbinic Judaism
Synopsis
This book claims that cultural phenomena exist in rabbinic Judaism worship and ethics. Each individual has his own personal experiences in both spheres, but what make the experiences possible are the values of society. Theories depicting the individual as the creative rebel who overcomes the bonds of routine and inertia with which the tribe would enslave him certainly do not apply to rabbinic Judaism, and in essence probably to no religion. Such theories must use terms like worship, repentance, or love--terms and ideas provided by the tribe and by society. Worship and ethics are closely associated in rabbinic Judaism. The creative agency which developed both spheres is Halakah, the rabbinic law, and their close association is likewise largely due to Halakah. The aim of this book is to describe how Halakah, working with the value concepts of the folk as a whole, enables the individual to achieve religious experience.

Softcover. Condition: Good. rev. Worship and Ethics not only describes certain key forms of Jewish worship and the character of Jewish ethics, but also demonstrates that in rabbinic Judaism worship has ethical concomitants. The individual and society are not two entities distinct from each other, for it is society which makes the experience of the individual possible. And, in the author's words, 'We regard ethics not as a system thought out by a philosopher but as a pattern of concepts developed by society.' In rabbinic Judaism, complex society is thought of as organic, maintaining stability while allowing full scope to individual personalities. This is made possible by supplying a pattern of common value concepts, represented by such conceptual terms as God's love, Torah, charity, and repentance, all of which are elements of a basic vocabulary. Both worship and ethics are shown to be governed by Halakah-Jewish law. In the merging of these two spheres the 'normal mystical' experience of God is achieved, a religious experience available to the common man and woman. Seller Inventory # SONG0819700118
