  Rabbi Reads The Bible (Student/Study Guide)

  $35.99

  Since its first appearance in 1991, under the title A Rabbi’s Bible, Jonathan Magonet’s introduction to the Jewish reading of Scripture has proved immensely popular, with Dutch and German editions. The informal style and wit open a wide range of scholarly issues to the general and specialist reader, and encourage a journey of discovery into unfamiliar traditional and modern Jewish approaches to the text of the Bible. For this new addition, Rabbi Magonet has added two new chapters, on the Biblical context of ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself’, and the inner logic of the Ten Commandments. Another humorous, yet challenging, sermon from the Annual Jewish-Christian Bible Week in Bendorf, adds a further example of creative reading with contemporary overtones. An updated suggested reading list adds to the value of this stimulating book.
