Without compromising one iota of Jewish faith, Rabbi Sacks declares, Jews must stand alongside their friends—Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, and secular humanist—in defense of freedom against those who desecrate life. And they should do this not to win friends or the admiration of others but because it is what a people of God is supposed to do.

Yet this section does not just offer a theoretical analysis of the act of Creation. Its main thrust is the wondrous connection between created man and the Creator – man’s faith in absolute divine unity on the one hand and the presence of the Divine in every detail of creation on the other, which are nothing but two facets of the same reality.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIggeret HaTeshuva (Letter on Repentance), the third section of the Tanya, constitutes a book in itself on the topic of repentance.

One learns that repentance is a process, beginning with the initial disconnection from sin and reparation of the blemish, followed by a higher level of repentance, where the present effectively erases the past, not only of the penitent, but of the entire creation.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e","brand":"Maggid","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39429278040142,"sku":"9781592645756","price":27.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0229\/0080\/1614\/products\/Tanyavol2D1.jpg?v=1625659991"},{"product_id":"bridging-traditions","title":"Bridging Traditions","description":"\u003cdiv data-offset-key=\"779m6-0-0\" data-editor=\"46r8r\" data-block=\"true\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"779m6-0-0\"\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"779m6-0-0\"\u003eAs the rabbi of a Sephardic synagogue for over twenty years, Rabbi Haim Jachter, who is himself of Ashkenazic descent and trained in Ashkenazic yeshivot, has a unique vantage point from which to observe the differences in customs and halakhot between Ashkenazim and Sephardim. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-offset-key=\"5k30k-0-0\" data-editor=\"46r8r\" data-block=\"true\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"5k30k-0-0\"\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"5k30k-0-0\"\u003eIn Bridging Traditions, Rabbi Jachter applies his wide-ranging expertise to a wide array of divergences between Ashkenazic and Sephardic religious practice, while also capturing the diversity within different Sephardic communities.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-offset-key=\"5hn2s-0-0\" data-editor=\"46r8r\" data-block=\"true\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"5hn2s-0-0\"\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"5hn2s-0-0\"\u003eBridging Traditions is essential reading for Jews of all origins who are interested in understanding their own practices and appreciating those of their brethren, and in seeing the kaleidoscope of halachic observance as a multi-faceted expression of an inner divine unity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Maggid","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39595702091854,"sku":"9781592645749","price":23.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0229\/0080\/1614\/products\/jachter_SephardicSavvy2dhires.jpg?v=1640175541"},{"product_id":"musariut","title":"Musariut","description":"A free society is a moral achievement. Over the past fifty years in the West this truth has been forgotten, ignored or denied.
