It is hard to work through one s grief when there are so many
cover-ups and so many different kinds of denial at work within the
culture. And that is why this book is of so much importance. Anne
Brener has crafted a walkway through the valley of the shadow of
death. The walkway has thorns and bramble bushes on it but it leads
to the other side, beyond grief, for those who are willing to stay
the course.
Keep this book for time of need and do the grief-work in which
it instructs us and you will see that this long and wise heritage
of ours still has the power to speak, to heal and to comfort even
in our time. from the Foreword by Rabbi Jack Riemer
For those who mourn a death, for those who would help them and
for those who face a loss of any kind, "Mourning & Mitzvah"
teaches you the power and strength available to you in the fully
experienced mourning process.
When the temple stood in the ancient city of Jerusalem, mourners
walked through the gates and into the courtyard along a
specifically designated mourner s path.
As they walked, they came face to face with all the other
members of the community, who greeted them with the ancestor of the
blessing, May God comfort you among the mourners of Zion and
Jerusalem. In this way, the community embraced those suffering
bereavement, yet allowed for unique experiences of grief.
In this new and expanded edition of a modern classic, Anne
Brener brings us an innovative integration of Jewish tradition and
modern professional resources. It gives spiritual insight and
healing wisdom to those in our own time who mourn a death, to those
who would help them and to those who face a loss of any kind.
