From the Preface: THE IDEA OF THIS BOOK came to my mind many years
ago, after several conversations with my friend and colleague in
Jewish educational studies Joseph Lukins professor at the Jewish
Theological Seminary in New York. He had suggested that an educated
Jew is, among other things, one who lives in some spiritual and
cognitive proximity to the weekly Torah reading, the parashat
hashavua, "portion of the week." He insisted that issues in the
philosophy of education might be in the liturgy's scriptural
readings,that even the way messages of tradition divided the Torah
into "portions" reflected discrete modes of teaching Torah.In this
book, theoretical conceptions, garnered from many places, even if
they do not precede reading of Torah, are certainly prisms through
which I can read it.
