ALTERNATE: Religion/Theology

Rabbi Edward Feinstein begins exploring chutzpah in the early chapters of Genesis. He then describes how the idea was encoded into the Jewish national narrative through biblical law, and how the Rabbis of the Talmud embraced it as the center of Judaism. He shows how the Rabbis’ sense of their own selfempowerment reshaped their religious tradition in response to the destruction of the Temple. Turning to the mystics of medieval Spain and the European Hasidic tradition, Feinstein shows how chutzpah found its expression in the tradition of Kabbalah. Finally, he explores the theme of empowerment in modernity, as the centerpiece of Zionism and postHolocaust thought.

Rabbi Edward Feinstein, a noted educator, author and speaker, is senior rabbi of Valley Beth Shalom in Encino, California. He is a columnist for the Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles and lectures widely across the United States. He is editor of Jews and Judaism in the 21st Century: Human Responsibility, the Presence of God and the Future of the Covenant and author of Tough Questions Jews Ask: A Young Adult’s Guide to Building a Jewish Life (both Jewish Lights).

A powerful, life-affirming new perspective on the Holocaust.

• Over ninety contributors from a broad range of occupations and professions—from theologians, scholars and spiritual leaders to authors, artists, political and community leaders and media personalities—in sixteen countries on six continents. • The powerful, deeply moving statements will have a profound effect on the way our and future generations understand and shape their understanding of the Holocaust. • Intended for a popular audience of people of all faiths and backgrounds.

MORE ABOUT THE BOOK For the children and grandchildren of Holocaust (Shoah) survivors and refugees from Nazi persecution, the suffering and survival of their immediate ancestors, and the annihilation of virtually their entire families, have in large part shaped their perspectives on God, faith and Jewish identity. Their reflections on the memories transmitted to them, and its effect on their lives, will inform, challenge and inspire people of all faiths and backgrounds. While the collective legacy of Holocaust survivors and refugees belongs to the entire Jewish people, as well as humankind as a whole, on an individual level this extremely personal and often idiosyncratic legacy was transmitted first and foremost by the survivors to their own children and grandchildren. There is no one form of this legacy. Some survivors spoke about their experiences in the ghettos and camps; others enveloped themselves and their families in a cloud of silence, shrouding their past in an aura of mystery and secrecy. There have been many books and studies about children of survivors—the so-called Second and Third Generations—with a psycho-social focus. This book is different. It is intended to reflect what they believe, who they are and how that informs what they are doing with their lives.

HIGH HOLY DAYS RECENTLY PUBLISHED What do the High Holy Days

have to say about universalism and particularism in Judaism? • Assembles almost forty contributors— scholars, rabbis, artists and thinkers from Canada, France, Germany, Israel, the Netherlands, the UK and the USA. • Combines the particularistic concern for Israel as a people called by God with the universalistic proclamation that Israel is called for universal ends. MORE ABOUT THE BOOK Rosh Hashanah is just one of two surviving Jewish new years from antiquity, the other being the month in which Passover falls. The two are exactly six months apart, proper symbolism of the age-old Jewish struggle to balance two contrasting principles: universalism and particularism. Passover’s central theme is the particularistic tale of the Jewish People released from servitude in Egypt to fulfill its historic destiny. The message of Rosh Hashanah, by contrast, is the universalistic definition of that destiny, the role that every Jew must play simply by virtue of being human, and the role of Judaism in helping Jews play that role with proper passion and commitment.

SHELVING MAIN: Judaism/Kabbalah & Mysticism ALTERNATE: Religion/Theology Rabbi Jonathan P. Slater, DMin, is codirector of programs at the Institute for Jewish Spirituality and teaches mindfulness meditation at the JCC in Manhattan and other venues. He is the author of Mindful Jewish Living: Compassionate Practice.

Author’s Home Area:

NEW YORK CITY Foreword: See p. 1 for Arthur Green's bio. Preface: Rabbi Nancy Flam is codirector of programs at the Institute for Jewish Spirituality. She cofounded the Jewish Healing Center and was the series editor for the LifeLights pastoral care pamphlets.

The soul yearns to feel connected to something greater and to know happiness despite personal suffering. The teachings of nineteenth-century Hasidic spiritual teachers offer a radically different Jewish theology that speaks to contemporary spiritual seekers whose faith has been shattered by modernity and the Holocaust. These masters taught of interdependence, interconnectedness, selflessness, service and joy, anticipating the insights of contemporary science and twenty-first-century spirituality. Mindfulness meditation directs practitioners to focus on each moment. This spiritual practice offers the possibility of inner peace, fearlessness and concern for the wellbeing of others.

SPIRITUAL PRACTICE RECENTLY PUBLISHED

At the intersection of Judaism and yoga, an accessible introduction to an embodied spiritual practice for profound and lasting self-transformation.

• Bridges the Jewish contemplative practice of self-study (Mussar) with the Eight Limbs of Yoga. • Intended for the novice as well as the yoga expert. • Includes exercises accompanied by step-by-step instructions, helpful photographs, mantras and journaling exercises. MORE ABOUT THE BOOK Mussar Yoga is a spiritual practice that engages the whole self in the process of spiritual transformation. In this clear and structured introduction to Mussar Yoga, readers will learn how to explore the physical dimension of soul traits— ethical behaviors and attitudes—such as humility, generosity, enthusiasm and gratitude through yoga poses and the yogic practice of breath work. With practice, Mussar Yoga can help free participants from established negative patterns of being, increase their capacity for compassion and acts of goodness, and help them develop a more fulfilling, meaningful life.
