Book Synopsis This Is Your Song Too by : Oren Kroll-Zeldin
Download or read book This Is Your Song Too written by Oren Kroll-Zeldin and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phish has a diehard fan base and a dedicated community of enthusiasts—called Phishheads—who follow the band around the country, some fans attending every show. What may be surprising is that a significant percentage of Phishheads are Jewish. Two members of the band—bassist Mike Gordon and drummer Jonathan Fishman—were raised in Jewish households, and Phish has been known to play Hebrew songs in concert. At live shows, many attendees, some wearing T-shirts emblazoned with “Phish” written in Hebrew letters, express feeling something special—even distinctly Jewish—during their performances. As this book shows, Phish is one avenue through which many Jews find cultural and spiritual fulfillment outside the confines of traditional and institutional Jewish life. In effect, Phish fandom and the live Phish experience act as a microcosm through which we see American Jewish religious and cultural life manifest in unique and unexpected spaces. Featuring an interview with Mike Gordon and a collection of fascinating photographs, This Is Your Song Too is an in-depth look at Jewishness in the Phish universe that also provides a deeper understanding of how spirituality, ritual, and identity function in the world of rock and roll. In addition to the editors, the contributors include Evan S. Benn, Dean Budnick, Jacob A. Cohen, Benjamin David, Jessy Dressin, Josh Fleet, Mike Greenhaus, Joshua S. Ladon, Noah Munro Lehrman, Caroline Rothstein, and Isaac Kandall Slone.

Download or read book Art and Ceremony in Jewish Life written by Vivian B. Mann and published by Pindar Press. This book was released on 2005-12-31 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since turning to the field of Jewish art over twenty years ago, Vivian Mann has concentrated on investigating Jewish ceremonial art within the dual contexts of Jewish law, and the history of decorative arts in general, including the ceremonial art made for the Church and the Mosque. The introduction to this volume considers classic rabbinic attitudes toward art and its relationship to spirituality.

Download or read book Crossovers written by Shlomo Sharan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crossovers compares Jewish anti-Zionism and Palestinian anti-Semitism from political and philosophical points of view. The authors' goal is to expose what is unique about these phenomena, and what they share, so that both ideologies and their practical impact can be better understood. The authors identify a symbiotic relationship between anti-Semitic Palestinian doctrines and those Jews who are anti-Zionists. There has been a great deal of research on these as separate phenomena, but there has thus far been no research that has noted their similarities. Palestinian anti- Semitism and Jewish anti-Zionism may stem from different sources, but they have similar consequences. Palestinian views derive from religious Islamic as well as nationalist- Arab roots, while the views of anti-Zionist Jews grew out of an ideological-Marxist-Trotskyite background. But both share a common goal: the destruction of the Jewish-Zionist nation, and a common strategy, to achieve a bi-national state as a first stage in the march to this goal. Jewish history is replete with examples of how Jews have ignored repeated threats and acts of violence against them. That characteristic of Jews reflects their Messianic belief, but it lacks a basis in history. That belief has resisted change even in the face of threats that were obvious and that have endangered Jewish lives in the past. Contemporary anti-Zionists share this optimistic outlook. Paradoxically, while the Jewish-Zionist State of Israel contends in public that another Holocaust will not happen and is patently impossible, the lesson of recent Jewish history is that a Holocaust can happen again. This work is unrelenting in its criticisms and tough minded in its assessments of the future. It merits careful, serious reading.
Download or read book Yeshua written by Dave Anthony and published by Dave Anthony. This book was released on 2022-01-22 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yeshua with his father and brother go to Magdala as hired carpenters to repair boats. He is caught in the middle of a bloody massacre and is traumatised. It is a baptism of fire for him. He goes to a breakaway community in Qumran to reflect. The community’s main function is to collect the fragile fragments of scripture and copy them onto fresh parchments. He acquires an in-depth knowledge of the scriptures. He spends seven years there and is elected as leader, the Teacher of Righteousness. Yeshua visits a similar group in Alexandria, Egypt, called the Assayya. They specialise in healing. King Ashoka of India had sent emissaries to Egypt with Hindus and Buddhist monks who assimilate with the Assayyas. Yeshua learns a new way of meditating and the art of healing. Realizing that this idyllic hermitic way of life is but an escape from reality, Yeshua leaves to be among the common people. He walks among people living between poverty and destitution besieged by malnutrition, physical impairment, disease and sickness from which they know no medical remedy. They are also overburdened by taxation and debt while the rich and powerful live a different life. Yeshua addresses these issues with practical solutions. He urges the people to protest unjust taxation and not to listen blindly to all the teachings of the Temple incurring the wrath of the elite. People come to listen to him. Ten men and six women become his close followers. They set up a base camp on the shore of the Sea of Galilee and move around Galilee. King Herod who beheaded John the Baptist is after Yeshua. With his followers he leaves his territory and travels beyond Galilee to foreign lands where they meet people who worship different gods and practise religions condemned by Judaism. They meet merchants who have travelled the Silk Route and the Incense Route and dialogue with them on their beliefs. It is a religious and cultural shock for him and his followers. On returning to base camp Yeshua teaches his followers of the medicinal use of herbs and sends them on mission. Finally, they join a caravan to Jerusalem. They confront Caiaphas, the High Priest and Pontius Pilate who have conspired to steal money from the Temple treasury, the Qorban. Together with the Zealots they protest corruption and religious misguidance of the Temple. Yeshua is arrested, tried by the Sanhedrin and condemned to death. Since the Romans had withdrawn the use of capital punishment by the Sanhedrin, they take him to Pilate and accuse Yeshua of stirring up trouble against Roman control. Pilate says Ecce Homo and orders his crucifixion.
Book Synopsis The Sefirot by : Yaacov Dovid Shulman
Download or read book The Sefirot written by Yaacov Dovid Shulman and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jewish mystical tradition teaches that in order to create the many planes of being that culminated in our world, God brought into being ten sefirot, or vessels. These sefirot consecutively filtered (and continue to filter) God's spiritual light, so that universes separate from Him were able to emerge. It is the belief of Kabbalists that every person, object, and process in the world works through the energies of the sefirot, and every Jewish practice and holiday is a conductor that allows these energies to flow. Furthermore, because people contain analogues of the sefirot within themselves, they can intuit the spiritual truth of the upper worlds. Consequently, man's actions - acts of goodness and of religious meaning, such as keeping the Sabbath - can influence the heavenly sefirot and draw down their positive energy. This analogy, between the sefirot and one's personal manner of relating to God in a profound and deeply-felt way, is a theme discussed at length in the Breslov chasidic literature; particularly so in Likkutei Halachot, an eight volume collection of essays by Rabbi Nosson of Nemirov, an esteemed student of Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav. This work parallels the sixteenth-century collection of Jewish law known as the Shulchan Aruch. But whereas that work, the foundation of modern halachic practice, is a practical manual, Likkutei Halachot uses the halachah as a takeoff point for brilliant expositions of Breslov chasidism. It is Likkutei Halachot that forms the basis of Y. David Shulman's The Sefirot: Ten Emanations of Divine Power.

Download or read book The Soul of Jerusalem written by Rabbi Shlomo Katz and published by Mosaica Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a little land. In that little land, there is a little city. In that city there is a little street, and on that street there is a little wall. When you stand by that Holy Wall, you can hear the footsteps of our father Abraham, and you can hear the trumpet of the Great Day to come. You hear the past and you can hear the future. You can hear the singing of the Levites. Or, you can hear us crying, going into exile. You can hear the six million crying out of the gas chambers, and you can hear the trumpet of the Great Day to come. I was standing one early morning by the Holy Wall, and I was saying Kaddish for my father. But when you stand by that Holy Wall, you say Kaddish for the whole world. Sometimes you feel like saying Kaddish for your own soul, and sometimes you feel like saying Kaddish for tomorrow. Then you hear the words “Yisgadal V’yiskadash Shmei Raba — May G-d’s Name become great and sanctified,” and you remember there is one G-d, and you know that the Great Morning is coming. You know that day and night will get together. The living and the dead, we and the whole world. This is my song, the song of tears, because on that Great Day the tears will march through the world, and the whole world will join them. The tears will clear the world and prepare the world. Everything will come together. We will all come together. It will be a new morning – a new beginning. In this remarkable and life-changing work, the reader is transported to the Holy Temple in Jerusalem to be inspired by the teachings of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach zt”l. Masterfully adapted by Rabbi Shlomo Katz (renowned musician and creator of the best-selling and acclaimed The Soul of Chanukah: Teachings of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach), these teachings touch the soul.
Book Synopsis Shiurei HaRav by : Joseph Dov Soloveitchik

This volume substantially builds on that achievement, bringing together nineteen of the Rav's most illuminating works not published elsewhere.

Download or read book Miracles written by Patrick J. Hayes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-01-11 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miracles give hope to the hopeless and exemplify the intersection of the divine and the mundane. They have shaped world history and continue to influence us through their presence in films, television, novels, and popular culture. This encyclopedia provides a unique resource on the philosophical, historical, religious, and cross-cultural conceptions of miracles that cut across denominational lines. Multidisciplinary in approach, this informative yet entertaining encyclopedia covers major aspects of miraculous phenomena through more than 150 alphabetically arranged entries that document how humanity's belief in religious miracles over multiple places, periods, and faiths have affected society—even changed the course of history. Written for high school students and general readers, the coverage enables readers to learn about different civilizations and cultures, the controversies surrounding different beliefs, and the often uncomfortable engagement of religion with science. This single-volume book provides a one-stop ready-reference that addresses a broad variety of subject matter on miraculous phenomena and guides further investigations into the subject. Helpful illustrations and lucid explanations of the ancillary concepts associated with miraculous phenomena make learning about this topic more engaging. Readers will be able to link the doctrinal concepts, such as "grace" or "prayer," with the descriptions of miraculous events, especially those associated with saints or holy objects. The examination of the controversial aspects of different belief systems along with the book's balanced coverage of the interpretation of miracles will encourage students to weigh different explanations, thus fostering the development of their critical thinking skills.
