A History of Judaism
Autor Martin Goodmanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 ian 2019
A panoramic history of Judaism from its origins to the present
Judaism is by some distance the oldest of the three Abrahamic religions. Despite the extraordinarily diverse forms it has taken, the Jewish people have believed themselves bound to God by the same covenant for more than three thousand years. This book explains how Judaism came to be and how it has developed from one age to the next, as well as the ways in which its varieties have related to each other.
'A one-volume tour de force. Goodman meets the substantial challenge of charting the twists and turns, tributaries and backwaters of Judaism's many streams over 2,000 years - and succeeds' Harry Freedman,Jewish Chronicle
'Learned and illuminating ... this magnificently lucid account will become the standard reference for a generation' Dominic Green,Wall Street Journal

An

...
Goodman

great
service
with
this
book,
encapsulating
most
of

A History of Judaismis beautifully written and meticulously annotated, and includes maps and illustrations. Goodman holds the book with authority and impeccable even-handedness, engaging the reader with his erudition, but also seasoning the narrative with some of the great and most influential Jewish lives. I could hardly recommend it more.
