Synopsis

A synopsis of the Jewish faith by the author of Kosher Sex builds on the writer's belief that Judaism possesses a core of wisdom that appeals to everyone, arguing against teachings that promote abstract expressions of faith, the rationalization of injustice, or an acceptance of the holocaust as a punishment for assimilation, in a provocative account that urges Judaism be regarded as a faith of spirituality rather than suffering.
