Book description
Judaism has survived for four millennia, and many of its customs, laws,
and traditions have remained exactly the same today as in the days of
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The Everything Judaism Book explains the
major precepts of this robust religion in language anyone can understand
and appreciate. From High Holy Days, such as Passover and Yom Kippur, to
symbols and objects, such as the Star of David and the tallis prayer
shawl, Jews and non-Jews alike will gain new understanding and insights
into the rich diversity and seemingly endless complexity of Jewish
practices and culture. Authoritative and thought-provoking, The
Everything Judaism Book has been exhaustively reviewed for accuracy by
Orthodox Rabbi Jacob Rosenthal and Reform Rabbi Robert Leib. The
Everything Judaism Book is a terrific introduction if you're learning
the religion for the first time, a great way to brush up on facts you
may have forgotten from Hebrew school, and the perfect mitzvah (good
deed) gift for a friend or relative.
