How can I tame my ego? How might I control my anger? How might I
experience the spirituality of sexual intimacy? How can I bestow
appropriate honor on a difficult parent? How might I accept my own
suffering and the suffering of those whom I love? Enter the
Talmudic study house with innovative teacher Rabbi Amy Scheinerman
and continue the Jewish values-based conversations that began two
thousand years ago. The Talmud of Relationships, Volume 1 shows how
the ancient Jewish texts of Talmud can facilitate modern
relationship-building-with parents, children, spouses, family
members, friends, and ourselves. Scheinerman devotes each chapter
to a different Talmud text exploring relationships-and many of the
selections are fresh, largely unknown passages. Overcoming the
roadblocks of language and style that can keep even the curious
from diving into Talmud, she walks readers through the logic of
each passage, offering full textual translations and expanding on
these richly complex conversations, so that each of us can weigh
multiple perspectives and draw our own conclusions. Scheinerman
provides grounding in why the selected passage matters, its
historical background, a gripping narrative of the rabbis' evolving
commentary, insightful anecdotes and questions for thought and
discussion, and a cogent synopsis. Through this firsthand encounter
with the core text of Judaism, readers of all levels-Jews and
non-Jews, newcomers and veterans, students and teachers,
individuals and chevruta partners and families alike-will discover
the treasure of the oral Torah.
