A challenge to each of us to take personal responsibility for
repairing the world.
"We are taught that every one of us is created in the divine
image. All of us can be holy through imitating God . So, you don t
have to look around or look away. You don t have to wait for
someone to come and do what you were put on this earth to do in the
first place. Judaism empowers you, as one of God s anointed ones,
to do more than you ever dreamed possible." from Chapter 1
The coming of the messiah is anticipated by millions of people
of many faiths as the ultimate salve for our spiritual lives and as
a way to finally make the world a better place.
"There Is No Messiah and You re It "examines the history of
messianic hope and anticipation, its evolution in Judaism and
Jewish history, and other interpretations of messiah that shed new
light on what it means to usher in the kingdom of God. This
fascinating book is our call to see ourselves as the fulfillment
of, not the anticipators of, messianic change.
Drawing from the Bible, the Talmud, rabbinic sources, and
modern-day scholars, Rabbi Robert Levine provides us with an
accessible, fascinating understanding of messianic vision, as well
as false messiahs throughout Jewish history. He challenges the
powerful idea of messiah that has survived in the heart, soul, and
ethos of the Jewish people, and reveals the immediacy of the
messianic presence in our day in our own lives.
Compelling and controversial, "There Is No Messiah and You re
It" inspires us to embody the noblest values of Jewish tradition
prayer, study, "mitzvoth, " and" tzedakah" and embrace our own
messianic potential to heal the world.
