Painting a composite picture of Judaism from its beginnings until today, Goshen-Gottstein draws on history, literature, theology, spirituality, and practiced religious life to craft an overview in which these different parts are appreciated as pieces of a larger whole.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeyond the canonical foundations of the Bible and the Talmud, Goshen-Gottstein incorporates mystical sources in presenting an image of spiritually engaged Jewish practice and belief. He thus argues that Judaism is best understood as a religious tradition that seeks to uphold not only a life lived in allegiance to God's law but, more importantly, a life lived in God's presence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by a senior scholar well known in Jewish, Christian, and interreligious circles, \u003ci\u003eIn God's Presence\u003c\/i\u003e will appeal to Jewish and Christian academic readers, those interested in the intersection of Jewish and Christian thought, and students in introduction to Judaism courses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Baker Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/21\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540969835\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 720","brand":"Alon Goshen-Gottstein","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51616372621493,"sku":"9781540969835","price":45.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_fbfa9fcc-20e2-4b5f-ba32-4c34734139b0.jpg?v=1756189183","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/in-gods-presence-a-theological-reintroduction-to-judaism-9781540969835","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
