Sin•a•gogue

<p><b>A manual for living with defeat <i>-Tablet</i></b><br></p><p>It is no more possible to think about religion without sin than it is to think about a garden without dirt.</p><p>By its very nature the ideals of religion entail sin and failure. Judaism has its own language and framework for sin that expresses themselves both legally and philosophically. Both legal questions-circumstances where sin is permissible or mandated the role of intention and action-as well as philosophical questions-why sin occurs and how does Judaism react to religious crisis-are considered within this volume. This book will present the concepts of sin and failure in Jewish thought weaving together biblical and rabbinic studies to reveal a holistic portrait of the notion of sin and failure within Jewish thought.</p><p>The suffix agogue means to lead or grow. Here as well <em>Sin•a•gogue: Sin and Failure in Jewish Thought</em> will provide its readers frameworks and strategies to develop even in the face of failure.</p>
