Om denne e-bog

A comprehensive guide to Judaism's annual celebrations and observances "written in a clear, thought-provoking style" by the coeditor of The Jewish Catalog ( Booklist).
For anyone seeking a deeper understanding and experience of the Jewish holidays, Michael Strassfeld offers this authoritative, comprehensive guide to the yearly festival cycle. The Jewish Holidays is a fascinating weave of the traditional and the contemporary, the communal and the individual, the letter and the spirit.
For the observant Jew, Strassfeld gives learned, in-depth commentary on the practice and the meaning of the holidays and for the novice he provides accessible information on conducting a seder, building a sukkah, and preparing inwardly for the High Holy Days.
