Theology in Rabbinic Stories

Rating:
Summary: A tremendous pleasure to learn with this book
Review: There is a tremendous pleasure in learning with this book. Rabbi Pearl tells stories of the sages, and through them teaches principles of Jewish thought. This work is written so clearly and the stories are told with such great vividness that the ideas come with particular force and conviction.
This was Rabbi Pearl's final work. And it represents truly his legacy, a legacy that included deep love of Jewish learning, and a fundamental menschlichkeit ( human goodness) that pervaded everything he did.
I believe this book should be in every Jewish library. And I believe that non- Jews who wish to understand Judaism truly should definitely read this work.
