Con muchísimo humor, este libro da respuesta a (casi) todas las preguntas básicas que se hacen hombres y mujeres en el camino de la búsqueda de pareja.Las relaciones sentimentales son uno de los ejes clave de la vida de los judios. No hay conversacion entre dos personas de la cole en la que no surja como tema: quien se caso, quien se separo, quien enviudo o quien le metio los cuernos a quien. Si bien esto es aplicable a todo el mundo, hay un elemento adicional de particular interes: los judios buscan, en primera instancia, otros judios para establecer sus relaciones. Y no es lo mismo hacerlo entre los mas de 2.000 millones de personas del sexo opuesto que hay en el mundo, que entre los apenas 15 o 16 millones de judios. Judios in love tiene como objetivo ayudarlo a conseguir pareja de la cole o, al menos, a munirlo con una bateria de excusas lo suficientemente amplia y lo potablemente creible como para que tenga algo que decir el proximo Rosh Hashana, cuando toda su familia se le venga al humo a consultarle por que siguen pasando los años y usted continua llegando solo a las fiestas. Como son los modelos de hombres que asisten a citas a ciegas, como minimizar el impacto de una cita de porqueria, la paradoja del ideal femenino sefardi, consejos para subir una foto a Internet, como lidiar con la neurosis femenina en el messenger, facebook como el paraiso de los ex, toda una serie de recomendaciones que, si no lo ayudan, por lo menos lo haran reir hasta las lagrimas.

Gogl Mogl es un exquisito postre muy popular entre los judíos de Europa Oriental. Este libro tiene algo de mucho sabor. Sus páginas recorren la divertida gama de matices acuñada por el humor judío desde sus primeros dias, cuando Eva le contaba las costillas a Adan cada vez que volvia de darse una vuelta por el Paraiso, hasta hoy.Una vez que tengas este libro en tus manos, los autores te recomiendan que apagues el celular y te ubiques comodamente en un sillon para leerlo, despues de dejar en el contestador los siguientes mensajes: Si es mi mama, estoy bien, cuando pueda te llamo; si es mi analista, estoy muy mal y necesito su ayuda urgente; si es el doctor: me duele aca venga a verme, pero avise cuando viene, asi la conoce a mi hija la soltera; si es un acreedor, esta equivocado de numero.

Breve historia del pueblo judío es el título del libro escrito por el historiador Juan Pedro Cavero Coll y editado por Nowtilus. Un ejemplar que resume en ocho capítulos la trayectoria de un pueblo en el que han nacido Moises, Jesucristo y Carlos Marx entre otros y que reconoce como padre a Abraham. Un libro ameno, sencillo y muy riguroso que vale la pena leer y que nos enseña una historia rica en avatares y costumbres ancestrales. Ademas de su historia cronologica y objetiva podemos ver a un pueblo en sus elementos mas intimos y originales, que no dejara indiferente a nadie. La historia de un pueblo que a pesar de la segregacion, la diaspora y el holocaustoha sabido conservar su identidad y su union religiosa. Este libro nos descubre la historia de uno de los pueblos mas complejos en la historia universal. Perseguidos a lo largo de la historia en todos los paises en los que se asentaron, los judios han vivido siempre en minoria con respecto a las otras grandes religiones, y aun asi, han sabido conservar sus señas de identidad y mantener un poder estrategico en aquellos paises en los que han habitado. Conocer al pueblo judio es descubrir que tienen en comun personalidades tan influyentes y dispares como: Moises, David, Jesus de Nazaret, Maimonides, Sigmund Freud, Karl Marx, Franz Kafka o Bob Dylan. Juan Pedro Cavero Coll trata en este libro la historia del pueblo judio de un modo riguroso pero sin renunciar a la intencion divulgativa. En los primeros capitulos analiza el nacimiento del pueblo judio desde el padre Abraham, su convivencia con Roma y la figura de Jesus de Nazaret, para pasar luego a la tensa convivencia de los judios con los cristianos y los musulmanes en la Edad Media y a la progresiva normalizacion de su situacion en la Ilustracion.

Midrás Tanhuma Buber es una colección de comentarios al Pentateuco. Pertenece a la clasificación de midrases homiléticos que, encabezados en importancia por Midrás Rabbah, se ocupan de dilucidar asuntos vinculados con la praxis de la existencia judia. Es mas homogeneo que Midras Rabbah, obra mixta en tiempo y autores. Al igual que Levitico Rabbah, es una coleccion de homilias en torno al ciclo de los sedarim de la sinagoga.Reconocer su relevancia en el proceso interpretativo es un hecho emergente. Los estudios del judaismo rabinico tienen una deuda pendiente con esta area de la literatura, y la Biblioteca Midrasica, una vez mas, tiene a bien aportar textos en castellano que compensen esa necesidad.

«Nuestro padre Abraham» es designación común en las Escrituras Sagradas de judíos, cristianos y musulmanes. La casa de Abraham es la casa común de todos. Esa casa estaba siempre abierta para todo el

Tomás Abraham se pregunta en este libro por qué vino de Rumania (y aun así se considera argentino), por qué sus padres se salvaron del genocidio de 350.000 judíos rumanos y por qué en su ciudad natal las sinagogas, sin daños aparentes, estan cerradas con candados.Para responder a estas inquietudes, traza un recorrido por la entreguerra en el que no solo muestra la gradual implementacion de una politica de segregacion hasta llegar a la masacre, sino tambien la enorme produccion cultural de creadores con talento que contribuyeron con la exterminacion de una de sus principales minorias.Uno de los intelectuales mas lucidos de la Argentina desafia, en La matanza negada, las politicas negacionistas de Estados nacionales de Europa Central y el ocultamiento de renombrados pensadores, como Emil Cioran y Mircea Eliade que, en complicidad con grupos paramilitares, como la Guardia de Hierro, fueron responsables de uno de los mayores crimenes de la historia.

After Ernst Jennis three well known basic volumes dealing with the Hebrew prepositions Beth, Kaph and Lamed a further study of the third most common preposition in Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic was a scholarly desideratum.This study of the preposition Min is presented here. The aim is to advance linguistic research on the Old Testament and to help to clarify a number of linguistic and semantic doubts and translation problems. Some new paths are being taken: The polysemous network that forms Min is systematically presented, the system of Hebrew prepositions is expanded to include an overall theory and the question of the logical subject in passive sentences is answered in a new way.This means that around 80% of all references to prepositions in the Old Testament have now been recorded and analysed.

These pages represent the compendium of a long journey of more than twenty-five years. It would be simplistic to define this journey as exclusively intellectual, because it would be unthinkable without frequent visits to the Middle East, in particular to Turkey, the second Holy Land of Christianity, the ancient Asia Minor of biblical history, with its overwhelming Muslim population today. The fact is that, since many years now, the theme of hospitality has been the subject of numerous publications, studies, contributions and gatherings with protagonists of various opinions and expertise convening to give answers to questions related to the challenge of living together in the complex society of our contemporary world. It is precisely by letting ourselves be questioned by these complexities that we become aware that the challenge of hospitality is not merely economic or political but also spiritual. Claudio Monge addresses one of the key questions of today with an extremely ancient text from the deepest roots of our civilisation, Genesis 18, in which Abraham welcomes the three strangers who come to his tent and announce the conception of Isaac. Today, when millions are in movement, fleeing war and poverty, the question of how we are to receive strangers is urgent and inescapable. Monge explores this text through the traditions of three religions - Judaism, Christianity and Islam - which claim the assent of approximately half of the population of the world. Yet these three religions, all looking back in one way or another to Abraham, are often strangers to each other. If we could offer welcome to each other, what a powerful sign of hope this would be for our conflict torn world!

The Talmud, a cornerstone of Jewish literature and thought, is a comprehensive compilation of rabbinical debates, legal discussions, and ethical teachings that spans centuries. It consists of the Mishnah, the foundational text of Oral Law, and the Gemara, which elaborates on the Mishnah through commentaries and discussions. Written in a dialect of Aramaic and Hebrew, the Talmud employs a unique literary style, characterized by its dialectical method, juxtaposition of differing opinions, and intricate logical reasoning. This body of work not only serves as a legal code but also provides profound insights into the cultural, religious, and philosophical aspects of Jewish life, reflecting the dynamic interplay between tradition and contemporary issues throughout the ages. The Talmud has been shaped by various authors throughout Jewish history, including famed rabbis such as Hillel and Shammai, whose teachings influence its content. These contributors lived in a complex socio-political landscape, contending with challenges to Jewish identity and practice during periods of exile and diaspora. Their collective wisdom reflects a commitment to preserving Jewish thought in the face of external pressures and has been instrumental in establishing Jewish law and ethics. For readers interested in philosophy, theology, or cultural studies, the Talmud is indispensable. It invites scholars and laypeople alike to engage deeply with its text, offering access to centuries of Jewish intellectual heritage. The Talmuds rich tapestry of thought not only enlightens readers about Jewish tradition but also fosters a deeper understanding of universal human questions.

In "Tales and Maxims from the Midrash," Samuel Rapaport delves into the vast reservoirs of Jewish thought, mining the rich traditions of Midrashic literature. This collection harmonizes various narratives and ethical teachings that elucidate both the Written and Oral Torah, employing a lyrical yet accessible literary style that invites readers to marvel at the depth and creativity of Jewish exegesis. Through insightful commentaries, Rapaport contextualizes these age-old tales within contemporary frameworks, allowing for a nuanced understanding of their relevance in modern spiritual and ethical discussions. Samuel Rapaport, a scholar deeply engaged with Jewish texts, draws from both his academic background and personal experiences within the Jewish community. His commitment to preserving and interpreting Jewish wisdom while fostering engagement with sacred texts is evident throughout his work. Rapaports perspective as a writer is informed by a blend of scholarly rigor and a passion for storytelling, enabling him to bridge the historical with the contemporary. For those seeking a meaningful exploration of Jewish tradition, "Tales and Maxims from the Midrash" is an essential read. It not only enriches oneAos understanding of the Torah but also instills a profound appreciation for the values and life lessons that these ancient texts continue to impart today.

The Talmud, a foundational text of Rabbinic Judaism, is a compendium of Jewish law, ethics, philosophy, and history, encapsulating centuries of oral tradition and scholarly debate. With its intricate structure, comprising the Mishnah and the Gemara, the Talmud employs a unique literary style characterized by dialectical reasoning and anecdotal narratives, merging legal discourse with narrative art. Its context is deeply rooted in the Jewish experience post-Temple destruction, reflecting the challenges of maintaining religious identity and practice in a Diaspora setting while offering insights into community life and spiritual resilience. The authorship of the Talmud is attributed to a diverse array of sages known as Tanaim and Amoraim, whose contributions spanned several centuries from the 2nd to the 6th CE. Their collective scholarship reflects a profound engagement with Jewish thought and law, influenced by the sociopolitical realities of the time, and seeks to provide guidance and interpretation, making the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) applicable to everyday life. This collaborative effort illustrates the dynamic nature of Jewish tradition and the importance of discourse and dialogue in shaping religious understanding. I highly recommend the Talmud to anyone interested in Jewish philosophy, law, and history. Its rich tapestry of dialogue and critical inquiry offers profound insights into the complexities of faith and practice, making it essential reading for scholars, students, and anyone curious about the evolution of religious thought. Engaging with the Talmud is not just an intellectual exercise, but a journey into the heart of Jewish tradition.
