The Spiritual and Cultural Practice of Judaism Today

A modern infusion of fresh ideas is changing Judaism, creating a religion in the process of renewal. From Stephen Spielberg to Kirk Douglas, Jews are returning home to their spiritual heritage, ready to read and study about a tradition both rich and supple.

In 'Being Jewish', Ari Goldman offers an eloquent discussion of the meaning and origins of the ritual moments at the heart of Judaism. Rooted in tradition without embracing any one ideology, this thoughtful volume transcends the boundaries of the Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform movements to explore every aspect of Judaism as it is lived today. Beginning with the rites of birth, Goldman describes the rituals associated with coming of age, marriage, and death. From the observance of the Sabbath and the sacred holidays to the role of prayer, the dietary laws, and other daily rituals, this elegant book documents Jewish spiritual and cultural life from an intimate yet objective point of view.
