Free Download Ken Koltun-Fromm, "Abraham Geiger's Liberal Judaism: Personal Meaning and Religious Authority"
English | 2006 | pages: 193 | ISBN: 0253347440 | PDF | 2,4 mb
German rabbi, scholar, and theologian Abraham Geiger (1810-1874) is recognized as the principal leader of the Reform movement in German Judaism. In his new work, Ken Koltun-Fromm argues that for Geiger personal meaning in religion―rather than rote ritual practice or acceptance of dogma―was the key to religion's moral authority. In five chapters, the book explores issues central to Geiger's work that speak to contemporary Jewish practice―historical memory, biblical interpretation, ritual and gender practices, rabbinic authority, and Jewish education. This is essential reading for scholars, rabbis, rabbinical students, and informed Jewish readers interested in Conservative and Reform Judaism.
