Jewish Holiday Companion: Insights into the Meaning of the Holidays, Their Prayers, Symbols and Biblical Readings
To connect to our tradition, we must understand the inner meaning and symbols of the holidays, and thereby become active participants in the ongoing relationship between god and israel. This Jewish holiday Companion is comprised of brief essays on the holidays, their symbols, and synagogue readings. The essays draw from the best of traditional and contemporary scholarship, and attempt to make the holidays and their ideas more relevant, inspiring, and accessible through the prism of rabbinic thought throughout the ages.
