Word:, The: Jewish Wisdom Through Time

The Word is a sweeping collection of aphorisms, quotations, and teachings - spanning over three thousand years - that offers every reader a chance to discover - or rediscover - the Jewish message and its messengers. Internationally acclaimed author, poet, and scholar Noah BenShea has dedicated more than twenty-five years to gathering inspirational insights into such subjects as God, family, love, politics, work, war, faith, mysticism, ethics, the environment, and the hereafter. He has selected some of the best oral and written Jewish thought from more than five hundred sources, including the Bible, the Talmud, and the Kabbalah, and the sayings or writings of Maimonides, Rashi, the Ba'al Shem Tov, Proust, Heine, Disraeli, Trotsky, Bellow, and Ben-Gurion, among many others. Organized by subject - and including a time line, an expansive description of sources, and a helpful index - The Word is an easy-to-use spiritual guide that responds to today's questions with timeless answers.
