Description
In this carefully crafted collection of essays, "Jewish Thought in Dialogue" offers creative interpretations of major Jewish texts and as well as original treatments of significant issues in Jewish theology and ethics.
The collection includes philosophical readings of biblical narratives, analyses of topics in the thought of Maimonides, Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook and Rabbi Joseph B Soloveitchik, and critical and constructive examinations of divine providence, religious anthropology, free will, 9/11, evil, Halakhah and morality, altruism, autonomy in Jewish medical ethics, and the epistemology of religious belief.
The author frequently brings Jewish philosophy and law into dialogue with contemporary Anglo-American philosophy.
