    Fascinating Books on Judaism from Shalom Hartman Institute, Jerusalem, Israel - Presentation Transcript

    1. 100 NIS This collection of essays addresses three critical challenges posed to Judaism by modernity - the challenge of ideas, the challenge of diversity, and the challenge of statehood - and provides insights and ideas for the future direction of Judaism.
    2. 100 NIS The factionalism and denominationalism of modern Jewry makes it difficult to create a definition of the Jewish people. Aiming to take readers beyond the divisions that characterize modern Jewry, this book explores the ever contentious question of "who is a Jew."
    3. 120 NIS This book constitutes the first attempt to address the category of Sonship in Jewish mystical literature as a whole. By this survey, not only can the mystical forms of Sonship in Judaism be better understood, but also the concept of Sonship in religion in general.
    4. 100 NIS This groundbreaking book outlines a broad spectrum of answers to important questions presented in Jewish literature, covering theological as well as hermeneutical issues.
    5. 130 NIS This book provides a close reading of primary halakhic texts as a key to explaining Giyyur (conversion), arguably the most radical of Judaic rituals, irrevocably turning a Gentile into a Jew.
