Their Heads in Heaven: V. 2: Unfamiliar Aspects of Hasidism
ISBN: 9780853035626 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Sheds light on obscure corners of the Hasidic movement and the lives of the Rebbes. After a brief account of the history and rise of Hasidism in the eighteenth century to its restoration in the New World after the Holocaust, novel developments, some of them startling, are examined. The book surveys the whole question of the relationship of the Rebbe to his disciples, showing that it was not always beneficial. As a fascinating essay in the book demonstrates, the holy man could be a source of numinous power, bringing danger as well as goodwill.

Beyond Reasonable Doubt
ISBN: 9781904113119 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) More than forty years have passed since Louis Jacobs first put forward the argument that traditionally observant Jews have no reason to take issue with the results obtained by the historical critics in their investigation into the Bible and the other classical sources of Judaism. In his numerous works on Jewish theology and in lectures worldwide, Jacobs has argued that the traditional doctrine which claims that 'the Torah is from Heaven' can and should be maintained-provided that the word 'from' is understood in a non-fundamentalist way to denote that there is a human as well as a divine...

Religion and the Individual: A Jewish Perspective
ISBN: 9780521411387 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This study demonstrates that, for all the admitted emphasis on peoplehood in the Jewish religious tradition, there are equally strong individualistic tendencies within Judaism. Dr. Jacobs maintains that in any balanced view of Judaism it must be shown that what the individual does with his life has eternal significance for that same individual, not only for the Jewish people as a whole. Through a careful analysis of the primary texts, Jacobs conducts a thorough survey of some of the most important instances where the individual is discussed in the Jewish religious tradition. In so doing, his...

Theology in the Responsa
ISBN: 9781904113270 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Responsa are replies given by prominent rabbinic authorities to questions put to them by other scholars, asking for rulings on specific issues, generally of a practical nature. The responsa literature is thus a repository of the learning and sound sense of some of the greatest rabbinic authorities over a period of more than a thousand years down to the present, and relates to all the countries where Jews have lived. Although most of the emphasis in the responsa literature is undoubtedly on practice, nearly all the great compilations of responsa also contain discussions of a theological nature...

This book attempts to uncover the basic form and structure of the Babylonian Talmud, a centrally important text in Jewish studies. The novel contribution made by Dr. Jacobs to the study of the Talmud consists in his concentration on the literary principles employed in its composition, and he presents a clear study indicating the manner in which earlier material was reworked in order to make each component, or sugya, into a carefully structured and self-consistent unit.
