Is Judaism essentially a religion of laws and commandments? Or do
its sources reflect significant attempts at addressing the
individual's inner life, existential crises and spiritual
experiences? Inner Religion in Jewish Sources offers a
comprehensive exploration of inner life in the Jewish sources from
the Bible to rabbinic literature, from Medieval Jewish philosophy
to Kabbalistic writings and the Hasidic world, where it gained
particularly potent expressions. Addressing the issue from the
perspective of comparative religion, it seeks to emphasize the
commonality of processes of interiorization in various religious
traditions, suggesting an innovative angle both in the study of
religion and of religious thought. In doing so, it sheds new light
on the inner aspect of Jewish religious life, which is all too
often hidden behind the external and institutional aspects of the
Jewish religion.
