Judaism's Life-Changing Ideas: A Weekly Reading of the Jewish Bible
By Jonathan Sacks, Baron Sacks
Categories: Religion & Spirituality
Judaism's Life-Changing Ideas (2020) is a themed companion to Rabbi Jonathan Sacks's Covenant & Conversation series, with one essay for each weekly Torah portion. The foreword is by journalist Bari Weiss. Each essay distils a single idea from the portion that Sacks believed could change a reader's life, connecting the text with psychology, philosophy and personal experience. Themes include gratitude, responsibility, character, the power of words and hope, each presented in a few pages.
