There are three thousand years of Jewish writing on religion, belief and ethics in THE NEW TREASURY OF JUDAISM. It contains selections from every age and every school of thought in the Jewish literary and philosophical traditions. The selections are presented in chronological sequence, beginning with the Bible, and concluding with the major Jewish thinkers and writers of our own time.
This invaluable anthology comprises selections from more than eighty sources — from the Bible, Talmud, Midrash, and Zohar; from the great medieval scholars, including Saadyah Gaon, Yehuda Halevi, Moses Maimonides and Joseph Karo; from thinkers of the modem era, such as Hirsch, Salanter, Schechter and Herzl; and from such twentieth-century writers as Bialik, Buber, Heschel, Kaplan, Berkovits and Lamm.
Dr. Philip Birnbaum, the editor of this unique book, has added illuminating introductions and biographical notes on each author.
In this one volume, both scholar and layman may review the entire range of Jewish thought — the sparkling gems of a rich tradition collected for all time in THE NEW TREASURY OF JUDAISM.
