»Alles, was deine Hand zu tun findet, tue in deiner Kraft.« (Martin Buber)

In ihrer Welt findet er Antworten auf die Grundfragen menschlicher Existenz und die Sinngebung des Lebens überhaupt. Doch seine Überlegungen sind nicht auf die chassidische Welt beschränkt, sondern weisen weit darüber hinaus.

Wie der »Holocaust-Erinnerungsweltmeister« im Kampf gegen Antisemitismus versagt
Nach den Terroranschlägen der Hamas auf Israel am 7. Oktober 2023 trat in Deutschland an vielen Stellen Antisemitismus in Wort und Tat offen zutage. Das schockierte, und doch war es wenig überraschend. Denn seit Jahren nehmen antisemitische Einstellungen zu, während zugleich das Wissen über die Zeit des Nationalsozialismus und den Holocaust abnimmt.
Wie konnte es so weit kommen? Deutschland, so der Historike

Als Marina Weisband ihre Followerschaft bei Twitter fragte, was sie so am Judentum interessiere, wurde sie mit Fragen überschüttet. Angesichts der Fülle an Themen holte sie sich Unterstützung von Eliyah Havemann. Zusammen beschlossen sie, die Fragen zunächst in der Videoreihe #FragEinenJuden bei YouTube und dann – in erweiterter Form – in einem Buch zu beantworten. Entstanden ist eine so lebendige und anschauliche Annäherung an das Judentum, wie es keine trockene Einführung zu vermitteln vermag.

Written in the high art style of prophetic witness, The Scroll of Anatiya reveals a new kind of biblical heroine who is fiercely passionate and sensual. In this first-person, honest, and vulnerable account of an orphaned, passion-driven disciple of Jeremiah--perhaps a prophetess in her own right--Anatiya reveals herself to be a rare window into an incredible world and a beautiful mind. Out of a century of war, wrath, starvation, and exile, Anatiya's epic love poem unleashes a timeless theology o

Israel Shahak was a remarkable man. Born in the Warsaw ghetto and a survivor of Belsen, Shahak arrived in Israel in 1945. Brought up under Jewish Orthodoxy and Hebrew culture, he consistently opposed the expansion of the borders of Israel from 1967.

In this extraordinary and highly acclaimed book, Shahak embarks on a provocative study of the extent to which the secular state of Israel has been shaped by religious orthodoxies of an invidious and potentially lethal nature. D

This is the moving story of how a Japanese lawyer and educational consultant from a conservative family of fan makers and merchants came to embrace Judaism. In his early 50s, while living in the US, he developed a serious health complaint which required sophisticated medical treatment and a drastic change of diet. This led to some serious soul-searching and to his decision to adopt the Jewish faith. The book describes vividly and with humour the many challenges he and his wife, with the support
