Summary | This volume preserves the longstanding tradition of organizing Jewish thought around three great themes: God, Torah, and Israel-while expanding within each category of thought. As such, each of us can observe the continuity of thought across the centuries while also pondering uniquely contemporary aspects of timeless questions. Concurrently, Open Judaism explores the options that exist for all kinds of Jewish belief. We will speak of theism for believers, humanism for atheists, pantheism and naturalism for agnostics. |
