Product Description
Being Jewish. What does it meantodayand for the future Listen in as Jews of all backgrounds reflect argue and imagine. When Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl was brutally murdered in Pakistan many Jews were particularly touched by his last words affirming his Jewish identity. Many were moved to reflect on or analyze their feelings toward their lives as Jews. The saying two Jews three opinions well reflects the Jewish communitys broad range of views on any topic. I Am Jewish captures this richness of interpretation and inspires Jewish people of all backgrounds to reflect upon and take pride in their identity. Contributions ranging from major essays to a paragraph or a sentence come from adults as well as young people in the form of personal feelings statements of theology life stories and historical reflections. Despite the diversity common denominators shine through clearly and distinctly. Contributors include Ehud Barak Sylvia Boorstein Edgar M.
