A feast of history;: Passover through the ages as a key to Jewish experience

by Chaim Raphael

Description

Repentance, Prayer and Charity are the three concepts at the heart of Rosh Hashana & Yom Kippur. How can we translate these abstract ideas into daily life? Three evocative tales demonstrate the meaning of these words and the way they shape even the humblest act. The universality of these stories makes this a book for all readers, all year.
