 Covenant & Conversation, A Weekly Reading of the Jewish Bible
Koren Publishers Jerusalem, 1 September 2009, www.korenpub.com
The Torah is an encounter between past and present, moment and eternity, that frames Jewish consciousness. In this long-anticipated, five-volume collection of essays on the weekly Torah portion, Chief Rabbi Sacks explores these intersections as they relate to universal concerns of freedom, love, responsibility, identity and destiny. Rabbi Sacks fuses Jewish tradition, Western philosophy and literature to present a highly developed understanding of the human condition under God’s sovereignty. Erudite and eloquent, Covenant & Conversation allows us to experience Rabbi Sacks’ sophisticated approach to life lived in an ongoing dialogue with the Torah. Winner of the 2009 National Jewish Book Award, America’s most prestigious Jewish literary prize.
