Pages : 341
Book Description
A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. The Eternal Dissident offers rare insight into one of the most inspiring and controversial Reform rabbis of the twentieth century, Leonard Beerman, who was renowned both for his eloquent and challenging sermons and for his unrelenting commitment to social action. Beerman was a man of powerful word and action—a probing intellectual and stirring orator, as well as a nationally known opponent of McCarthyism, racial injustice, and Israeli policy in the occupied territories. The shared source of Beerman’s thought and activism was the moral imperative of the Hebrew prophets, which he believed bestowed upon the Jewish people their role as the “eternal dissident.” This volume brings Beerman to life through a selection of his most powerful writings, followed by commentaries from notable scholars, rabbis, and public personalities that speak to the quality and ongoing relevance of Beerman’s work.

The Eternal Gifts of Judaism
Author: David Heller Ph.DPublisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1984583670
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
The Eternal Gifts of Judaism is David Heller’s contribution to capturing the spirit of this great religion and its most important values. With the Bible’s wisdom literature as a prominent resource, Dr. Heller addresses a vast array of religious subjects, including: Judaism’s most essential offerings, the distinctiveness and impact of Judaism, aspects of faith that it espouses, its guidance on living a righteous and fulfilling life, ways of thinking about God and human relationships, and Judaic notions of a life beyond. Here are a few selections from the many thought-provoking perspectives on Judaism: “A signature gift of Judaism: the radical idea that the presence of God can and does exist within a human being.” “Nobility is not derived from a crown on one’s head but by the spirit in one’s heart.” “In Judaism, the deepest form of suffering is to place one’s self at a distance from God.” “God provides us with the gifts of authenticity and generosity but it’s incumbent upon us to embrace those gifts.”
