If humans really have a highly developed mind, and they are guided by a common sense relative to the creatures, why history of mankind looks as a mad delirium? Do you know why? People who are we? What awaits us? Why you are on this planet now an why so many suffering here? Do you believe the All-Seeing really exists as well as His blessings and punishments? Or your sins will decay with the body under the coffin lid? Can you admit that your soul is deathless, and previously it animated bodies of humans and creatures not neccessarily monkeys? What do you think about those who first incarnated in human form and have the same free will and rights as you? Isn't that dangerous?

Pages : 248
Book Description
What is nature’s place in our spiritual lives? In today’s modern culture, we’ve become separated from the sacredness of the natural world. This book offers a different, eye- and soul-opening way of viewing our religion: A perspective grounded in nature, and rich in insights for seekers of all faiths. Respect for the holiness of Creation, our duty to protect the natural world, reverence for the land...a focus on nature is part of the fabric of Jewish thought. Here, innovative contributors bring us a richer understanding of the long-neglected themes of nature that are woven through the biblical creation story, ancient texts, traditional law, the holiday cycles, prayer, mitzvot (good deeds), and community. Ecology & the Jewish Spirit explores the wisdom that the Jewish tradition has to offer all of us, to help nature become a sacred, spiritual part of our own lives.

Martin Buber’s Myth of Zion
Author: S. Daniel Breslauer
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527531376
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
The book provides an insightful study of the Jewish theologian Martin Buber, and combines a review of the unconventional Zionism he proposed with a sensitivity to myth as the basis of an inclusive civil religion. The multifaceted nature of this work examines Buber’s embrace of myth, and his application of myth to both biblical studies and political theory. It pays special attention to the way Buber’s thinking about Zion applied to religious ethical issues such as ecology, education, ritual, and, as a continuing theme throughout the book, to the conflict between those Buber called Jews and Arabs in the land of Palestine.

Between Heaven and Earth
Author: Ilene Winn-Lederer
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780764950988
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Artist Ilene Winn-Lederer's conception of Between Heaven and Earth: An Illuminated Torah Commentary had its roots in the unique invitation she designed for her son's bar mitzvah in the 1980s. The tri-fold card incorporated themes from the Torah, the Haftorah, and the commentaries on both books, and it led to many commissions for artworks based on themes from Jewish liturgy. Eventually this cumulative body of work inspired her to illuminate the complete Torah, and for five years she focused her studies and extraordinary illustrative skills on the creation of this book. The first five books of the Bible, the Torah, are divided into fifty-four portions, or parashiyot(singular parashahI/i>). Each week of the Jewish year, a portion is read and studied; every Jewish congregation in the world reads from the same parashah each week, and the Torah is read in sequence through the year. Between Heaven and Earth presents a two-page spread for each parashah, with Winn-Lederer's bold and beautiful imagery accented with Hebrew and English text excerpts rendered in her elegant calligraphy. The illuminated Torah is followed by a section titled "AfterImages: Artist's Notes," in which Lederer details the biblical story, symbols, and personal reflections that guided each illustration. She conveys her extensive knowledge of the Torah clearly and accessibly, offering her interpretations against a backdrop of years of scholarship. Between Heaven and Earth is a signature work from a consummate artist whose vision is informed by both tradition and her vigorous imagination. There is nothing else like it in the world.
