Prior to the popularization of Kabbalah, Kabbalist Rav Berg synthesized the wisdom’s key concepts into a progressive system, rather than the non-linear manner of exploration previously available. This book is the result. The kabbalistic lineage is inextricably tied to the study of the knowledge itself. To this end, Rav Berg includes historical milestones, as well as insights about master kabbalists, whose lives and deaths provide a basis for learning and connection.

The Bible is the central book in Western culture, yet extraordinarily there is no proper history of it. This exceptional work, by one of the world's leading Biblical scholars, provides a full account of how the different parts of the Bible came to be written; how some writings which were regarded as holy became canonical and were included in the Bible, and others were not; what the relationship is of the different parts of the Bible to each other; and how, once it became a stable text, the Bible has been disseminated and interpreted around the world.

Simon Wiesenthal was the legendary “Nazi hunter” and Holocaust survivor who dedicated his life to the punishment of Nazi criminals. A hero in the eyes of many, he was also attacked for his unrelenting pursuit of the past, when others preferred to forget. For this definitive biography, Tom Segev has obtained access to Wiesenthal’s hundreds of thousands of private papers and to sixteen archives, including records of the U.S., Israeli, Polish, and East German secret services.

It is a story like no other: an epic of endurance against destruction, of creativity in oppression, joy amidst grief, the affirmation of life against the steepest of odds. It spans the millennia and the continents - from India to Andalusia and from the bazaars of Cairo to the streets of Oxford. It takes you to unimagined places: to a Jewish kingdom in the mountains of southern Arabia; a Syrian synagogue glowing with radiant wall paintings; the palm groves of the Jewish dead in the Roman catacombs.

« Juives par choix » est un podcast de Léa Taïeb pour Le Lab de Tenou'a. Il est consacré aux femmes qui se convertissent au judaïsme en France. Ici, on se demande pourquoi elle s’engagent dans un tel processus. Pourquoi ces femmes sont-elles prêtes à consacrer plusieurs années de leur vie afin d’être reconnues juives ? Beaucoup choisissent de passer par le Consistoire, l’institution qui gère la plupart des conversions en France. En effet, seul le Consistoire permet de voir sa conversion reconnue par la majorité du monde orthodoxe. D’autres optent pour...

"Celui qui observe les préceptes du Talmud est un Saint". Ayant constaté, dans différentes circonstances, que certaines personnes n'appartenant pas à notre culte ont gardé, de par le fait de leur éducation première, une opinion très erronée concernant le Talmud qui, depuis longtemps, est chargé de tous les péchés d'Israël, nous avons essayé de donner de ce Recueil un exposé sommaire.

Kabbalah For Dummies presents a balanced perspective of Kabbalah as an "umbrella" for a complex assemblage of mystical Jewish teachings and codification techniques.

When human rights lawyer Philippe Sands received an invitation to deliver a lecture in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv, he began to uncover a series of extraordinary historical coincidences.

Distinguished philosopher Hilary Putnam, who is also a practicing Jew, questions the thought of three major Jewish philosophers of the 20th century - Franz Rosenzweig, Martin Buber, and Emmanuel Levinas -- to help him reconcile the philosophical and religious sides of his life.

Entrepris, rédigé, terminé à travers les pires épreuves, JÉSUS ET ISRAËL est certes un livre de passion, mais aussi un livre de raison, car c’est le livre d’un historien à la recherche de la vérité sur les relations entre Jésus et le peuple d’Israël. Il est aussi et avant tout un acte de foi, de foi en la puissance de l’Amour qui doit prévaloir sur toutes les forces meurtrières du Mépris et de la Haine. Sur le plan des réalités, il vise à un redressement de l’enseignement chrétien concernant Israël.

A Promise at Sobibór is the story of Fiszel Bialowitz, a teenaged Polish Jew who escaped the Nazi gas chambers. Between April 1942 and October 1943, about 250,000 Jews from European countries and the Soviet Union were sent to the Nazi death camp at Sobibór in occupied Poland. Sobibór was not a transit camp or work camp: Its sole purpose was efficient mass murder. On October 14, 1943, approximately half of the 650 or so prisoners still alive at Sobibór undertook a daring and precisely planned revolt, killing SS officers and fleeing through minefields and machine-gun fire.

The first definitive biography of Moses Maimonides, one of the most influential intellects in all of human history, illuminates his life as a philosopher, physician, and lawgiver.

Many people today think the Bible, the most influential book in world history, is not only outdated but irrelevant, irrational, and even immoral. This explanation of the Book of Genesis, the first book of the Bible, demonstrates clearly and powerfully that the opposite is true.

Reviled as a fascist by his great rival Ben-Gurion, venerated by Israel’s underclass, the first Israeli to win the Nobel Peace Prize, a proud Jew but not a conventionally religious one, Menachem Begin was both complex and controversial.
