Description

Rapiring the world (tikkun olam) is an integral part of Jewish life. It is a key feature in observances, holidays, and even madates how we should speak to one another. But why is it important for christians to understand this Jewish approach to life? And what kind of impact can understanding this fundamental aspect of Judaism have on Christians seekignto develop a deeper understanding of their own faith? With insight and wisdom, Rabbi Dorff provides accessible, honest and thorough answers to this importna t concept in Judaism. With easy-to-understand explanations of Jewish terms, practices and history, each chapter explores a different facet touched by the tradion of tikkun olam, paralleling explanations with Christian themes and practices.
