Judaism, Embracing, Seeker

Judaism: Embracing the Seeker









This book is addressed to Jews and non-Jews, affiliated or unaffiliated, who seek to understand the distinctive character of Jewish faith and identification. It seeks to dispel the whispered rumors that Judaism looks askance at those of other faiths who seek or have adopted a Jewish way of life. The myth of exclusiveness would limit Judaism to Jews by genes, contrary to Jewish theology, law, and Jewish history.

57 men and women who have chosen to join the Jewish community of faith and destiny are asked the motivation for their choice, the reaction of their family and friends, and their aspirations for their renewed lives. They answer by offering personal testimony to their journey and to the meaning their free-willed choice has added to their lives.

Prominent synagogue rabbis, of all Jewish schools of thought share their dialogues with the seekers who learn of the shivers of Jewish history, the resilience of its people throughout 40 centuries of existence and the vision of a universe to be sanctified through active, loving care.

The gates of Judaism are open. Let all who hunger come and eat at the same table.
