Jewish Theology Unbound challenges the widespread misinterpretation
of Judaism as a religion of law as opposed to theology. James A.
Diamond provides close readings of the Bible, classical rabbinic
texts, Jewish philosophers, and mystics from the ancient, medieval,
and modern period, which communicate a profound Jewish
philosophical theology on human nature, God, and the relationship
between the two. The study begins with an examination of
questioning in the Hebrew Bible, demonstrating that what the Bible
encourages is independent philosophical inquiry into how to situate
oneself in the world ethically, spiritually, and teleologically. It
explores such themes as the nature of God through the various names
by which God is known in the Jewish intellectual tradition, love of
others and of God, death, martyrdom, freedom, angels, the
philosophical quest, the Holocaust, and the state of Israel, all in
light of the Hebrew Bible and the way it is filtered through the
rabbinic, philosophical, and mystical traditions.
