Judaism, the religion of the Jewish people, is one of the first
recorded monotheistic religions, and as such is one of the oldest
religious traditions still practiced today. While its influences
can be seen in the religions of both Christianity and Islam, many
of its beliefs, traditions, and practices are unknown. The second
edition of The A to Z of Judaism doesn't just present "religious"
beliefs in a traditional sense but investigates the complex
intermingling of religion, devotion, lifestyle, and culture as it
is found in diverse Jewish populations around the world and as it
has evolved over the course of recent human history. Judaism, like
many other cultural institutions, has rarely remained static
instead, continually investigating and questioning itself,
metamorphosing in relation to the world. By means of a chronology,
an introductory essay, a bibliography, and numerous
cross-referenced dictionary entries on important persons, writings,
institutions, concepts, Hebrew words, philosophy, theology, and
religious law, author Norman Solomon provides an important
reference source for the study of Judaism.
