Book Synopsis American Rabbis, Second Edition by : David J. Zucker
Download or read book American Rabbis, Second Edition written by David J. Zucker and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-06-21 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a broad-brush approach describing the realities of life in the American rabbinate. Factual portrayals are supplemented by examples drawn from fiction—primarily novels and short stories. Chapters include: ♣Rabbinic Training ♣Congregational Rabbis and Their Communities ♣Congregants’ Views of Their Rabbis ♣Women Rabbis [also including examples from TV and Cinema] ♣Assimilation, Intermarriage, Patrilineality, and Human Sexuality ♣God, Israel, and Tradition This book draws upon sociological data, including the recent Pew Research Center survey on Jewish life in America, and presents a contemporary view of rabbis and their communities. The realities of the American rabbinate are then compared/contrasted with the ways fiction writers present their understanding of rabbinic life. The book explores illustrations from two hundred novels, short stories, and TV/cinema; representing well over 135 authors. From the first real-life women rabbis in the early 1970s to today’s statistics of close to 1,600 women rabbis worldwide, major changes have taken place. Women rabbis are transforming the face of Judaism. For example, this newly revised second edition of American Rabbis: Facts and Fiction reflects a fivefold increase in terms of examples of fictional women rabbis, from when the book was first published in 1998. There is new and expanded material on some of the challenges in the twenty-first century, women rabbis, human sexuality/LGBTQ matters, trans/post/non-denominational seminaries, and community-based rabbis.

Download or read book The Kissing Rabbi written by Andy Becker and published by Tree of the Field Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a quiet suburb outside Portland, Oregon a Jewish Community is about to have their world upended! Rabbi Dreidel, a young, charismatic Orthodox rabbi, moves into a quiet suburb to assemble a congregation from scratch. Schmoozing with every Jewish man and woman he can find, his fledgling synagogue quickly grows into a robust community. Underneath a well-rehearsed veneer of righteousness is an unrestrained desire to explore his sexuality with multiple women. Of course, the rabbi can't admit that, so he pretends that he wants to improve his marriage, and the best way to "learn" how to please his wife is to seek out women for some very detailed and explicit sexual advice. At first, the women naively sympathize with their rabbi who appears so forlorn and desperate. But as his questions become graphic, and as forbidden hugs and lingering embraces begin to feel more like foreplay than friendliness, his real intentions emerge. In a patriarchal Orthodox community, it's unusual for women to speak out, yet a few brave whistleblowers begin to share their stories - so the rabbi scrambles to lawyer up, while rallying his supporters in the community. He is prepared to fight and will go to any length to retain his position and prevent his world from crumbling. Members of a shocked congregation choose sides, leading to a community on the brink of being ripped apart. Will the rabbi win out? Will the women's stories be heard and believed? And will the community survive? Find out in The Kissing Rabbi. A novel by Andy Becker.
Book Synopsis Refusing to Kiss the Slipper by : Michael W. Bruening
Download or read book Refusing to Kiss the Slipper written by Michael W. Bruening and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-19 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History has long viewed French Protestants as Calvinists. Refusing to Kiss the Slipper re-examines the Reformation in francophone Europe, presenting for the first time the perspective of John Calvin's evangelical enemies and revealing that the French Reformation was more complex and colorful than previously recognized. Michael Bruening brings together a cast of Calvin's opponents from various French-speaking territories to show that opposition to Calvinism was stronger and better organized than has been recognized. He examines individual opponents, such as Pierre Caroli, Jerome Bolsec, Sebastian Castellio, Charles Du Moulin, and Jean Morély, but more importantly, he explores the anti-Calvinist networks that developed around such individuals. Each group had its own origins and agenda, but all agreed that Calvin's claim to absolute religious authority too closely echoed the religious sovereignty of the pope. These oft-neglected opponents refused to offer such obeisance-to kiss the papal slipper-arguing instead for open discussion of controversial doctrines. They believed Calvin's self-appointed leadership undermined the bedrock principle of the Reformation that the faithful be allowed to challenge religious authorities. This book shows that the challenge posed by these groups shaped the way the Calvinists themselves developed their reform strategies. Bruening's work demonstrates that the breadth and strength of the anti-Calvinist networks requires us to abandon the traditional assumption that Huguenots and other francophone Protestants were universally Calvinist.
