Synopsis

Cows chanting mystical hymns; a talmudic rabbi who is revered as a Christian saint; a learned demon who speedily transmitted rabbinic teachings between distant towns on the sabbath; the laundering of spiritual garments while the righteous slumber; a talmudic proverb that shows up in a Jimmy Cagney film and in the Trump White House—these are but a few of the tantalizing morsels from Jewish tradition that will delight and enlighten the readers of this collection of short essays on Jewish history and religion. Preachers, Teachers and Selected Short Features is the latest offering in Eliezer Segal’s series of engaging studies directed at an intellectually curious but non-scholarly readership.
