How can I lead others with authority and kindness? How can I
strengthen my self-control? How can I balance work and family? How
can I get along with difficult coworkers? How can I best relate to
people in need? 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 2 shows how the ancient Jewish texts of
Talmud can facilitate modern relationship building-with family
members, colleagues, strangers, the broader Jewish community, 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.
