Description

'The question I put before you, as well as before myself, is the question of the meaning of Judaism for the Jews. Why do we call ourselves Jews? I want to speak to you not of an abstraction but of your own life...its authenticity and essence'. With these words, Martin Buber takes us on a journey into the heart of Judaism - its spirit, vision and relevance to modern life.
