A Letter in the Scroll
A BRIEF OVERVIEW
Twenty years since A Letter in the Scroll was first published, this book continues to act as a crucial voice in the conversation of what it means to have faith, to be a Jew, and to build a better world.
Written originally as a wedding gift to his son and daughter-in-law, this is Rabbi Sacks’ personal answer to the question, ‘Why Am I A Jew?’, and his response is a testimony to the enduring strength of his religion.
Tracing the revolutionary series of philosophical and theological ideas that Judaism created - from covenant to sabbath to formal education—and showing us how they remain compellingly relevant in our time, Sacks portrays Jewish identity as an honour as well as a duty.
In a way that is both timely and timeless, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks questions how, in the face of such adversity, has Judaism remained and flourished, making a mark on human history out of all proportion to its numbers? And how, in this speedily changing world, can it continue to do so?
A Letter in the Scroll was also published under the title Radical Then, Radical Now.
