Enter the Remarkable World of Rabbis Debating Across Centuries
Step into the fascinating world of rabbis who engage in discussions across centuries, striving to pass on Jewish tradition to future generations in a way that remains relevant to the world we live in today.
The authors have retold twenty rabbinic stories in an entertaining, illustrated format, representing the teachings contained in the Talmud—a book compiled in the early centuries of our era to record the intellectual, legal, and ethical traditions of the Jewish people.
Thus, before us parade renowned mystics, wise (and occasionally a bit eccentric) rabbis, and their students, all attempting to explain how things in our world really are. Or… aren’t they?
