« Livre juif significatif »
Jacob fuyait la maison. Une nuit, il s'est allongé dans le désert pour dormir et a eu l'une des grandes expériences mystiques de la religion occidentale. Il rêvait qu'il y avait une échelle, avec des anges ascendants et descendants, étirés entre le ciel et la terre. Pendant des milliers d'années, les gens ont essayé d'entendre ce que les messagers sont descendus dire à Jacob, et à nous.
Maintenant dans un mélange audacieux d'érudition et d'imagination, de psychologie et d'histoire, Lawrence Kushner rassemble une gamme inspirante d'interprétations de Genèse 28:16 données par des sages, de Shmuel bar Nachmani en Palestine du troisième siècle à Hannah Rachel Werbermacher de Ludomir qui vivait en Pologne il y a deux cents ans O Grâce à un nouveau genre littéraire fascinant et à la reconstruction créative de la vie et du temps des enseignants par Kushner, nous entrons dans les salles d'étude et nous nous asseyons aux pieds de ces maîtres spirituels pour apprendre ce que chacun a découvert sur le Soi de Dieu et sur nous-mêmes lorsqu'ils montent et descendent l'échelle de Jacob.
Dans ce voyage illuminateur, nos guides spirituels posent et répondent aux questions fondamentales de l'expérience humaine : Qui suis-je ? Qui est Dieu ? Quel est le rôle de Dieu dans l'histoire ? Quelle est la nature du mal ? Comment dois-je me rapporter à Dieu et aux autres personnes ? L'univers pourrait-il vraiment avoir un soi ?
Le rabbin Lawrence Kushner réclame brillamment un millénaire de spiritualité juive pour les chercheurs contemporains de toutes les confessions et origines. God Was in This Place & I, i Did Not Know est à propos de Dieu et de vous ; il s'agit de découvrir la place de Dieu dans l'univers, et la vôtre.

Paperback. Etat : Good. Selected as a Union of American Hebrew Congregations (UAHC) Significant Jewish Book Jacob was running away from home. One night he lay down in the wilderness to sleep and had one of the great mystical experiences of Western religion. He dreamed there was a ladder, with angels ascending and descending, stretched between heaven and earth. For thousands of years, people have tried to overhear what the messengers came down to tell Jacob, and us. Now in a daring blend of scholarship and imagination, psychology and history, Lawrence Kushner gathers an inspiring range of interpretations of Genesis 28:16 given by sages, from Shmuel bar Nachmani in third-century Palestine to Hannah Rachel Werbermacher of Ludomir who lived in Poland two hundred years ago. Through a fascinating new literary genre and Kushner's creative reconstruction of the teachers' lives and times, we enter the study halls and sit at the feet of these spiritual masters to learn what each discovered about God's Self and ourselves as they ascend and descend Jacob's ladder. In this illuminating journey, our spiritual guides ask and answer the fundamental questions of human experience: Who am I? Who is God? What is God's role in history? What is the nature of evil? How should I relate to God and other people? Could the universe really have a self? Rabbi Lawrence Kushner brilliantly reclaims a millennium of Jewish spirituality for contemporary seekers of all faiths and backgrounds. God Was in This Place & I, i Did Not Know is about God and about you; it is about discovering God's place in the universe, and yours. N° de réf. du vendeur 00101786285
