The Holiness of Doubt is a timely and essential contribution to the
study of sacred Jewish texts. What does it mean for a book of faith
for millions of people to be riddled with the uncertainties evoked
by hundreds of questions? Rabbi Joshua Hoffman has chronicled the
questions of the Torah and offers personal insights and the
accumulated wisdom of interpretations, ancient and modern, to
discover the meaning of questions and the holiness of doubt. This
book offers the reader a chance to see the wisdom of the Torah
refracted through its questions. Divided according to the weekly
Torah portions as traditionally studied in the Jewish community,
this book explores the purpose of questions in the text and becomes
a unique interpretation of the Torah on its own. There are also
summaries for the portions which do not contain questions to
explore what impact the absence of questions has on the Torah as a
whole. In confronting doubt, we gain a renewed permission to
explore the deepest questions of our time. We can discover, like
our ancestors dreamed, that the wisdom of the biblical tradition
echoes eternal truth in every generation.
