Celebrating the Jewish Year: The Fall Holidays
Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, SukkotBy Paul Steinberg
Edited by Janet Greenstein Potter
Illustrated by: Adam Rhine
(220 Pages)Publisher: Jewish Publication Society, 2007
Part of the "Celebrating the Jewish Year: 3 Volume Set" series.
The joys, spirit, and meaning of the seasons. Blending the old and the new, this book grounds us in the origins and traditions of each holiday and open up to us ways we can add our own expression to these special days. Although synagogue ritual is touched upon, the real focus here is on our personal connections to each holiday and our home observance.
As we move from season to season, Paul Steinberg shares with us a rich collection of readings from many of the Jewish greats -- Maimonides, Rashi, Nachmanides, Shlomo Carlebach, Marge Piercy, Elie Wiesel, Martin Buber, Abraham Joshua Heschel, Arthur Green, and others -- and he guides us in discovering for ourselves the many treasures within each text.
The readings teach us about the history of each holiday, as well as its theological, ethical, agricultural, and seasonal importance and interpretation; others give us inspiration and much food for thought. These stories, essays, poems, anecdotes, and rituals help us discover how deeply Jewish traditions are rooted in nature's yearly cycle, and how beautifully season and spirit are woven together throughout the Jewish year.
