It is a celebration of human freedom, human possibility and human responsibility. Judaism is a way to live a heroic life, to construct a life devoted to values that are eternal, values of ultimate significance. The reward of a Jewish life is walking the world with a profound faith that you matter, your life matters, your dreams matter. I call this \u003cem\u003echutzpah\u003c\/em\u003e.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--from the Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this clarion call for a new way to \"do Judaism,\" award-winning spiritual leader Rabbi Edward Feinstein urges us to recover this message of Jewish self-empowerment--or chutzpah--to reshape our world. He walks us through the history of chutzpah--from the early chapters of Genesis, Jewish biblical law and the Rabbis of the Talmud to the mystics of medieval Spain and the European Hasidic tradition, Zionism and post-Holocaust thought. By showing us the ever-presence of chutzpah in Judaism he reveals the inner story of the Jewish People's soul as well as the meaning that Judaism's deepest purpose and most precious treasure has for us today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jewish Lights Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/08\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781683363521\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.45d","brand":"Edward Feinstein","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36665837093020,"sku":"9781683363521","price":10.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_7e4caa5c-b2f1-4305-ad73-6c76325cc0fc.jpg?v=1603910508","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-chutzpah-imperative-empowering-todays-jews-for-a-life-that-matters-9781683363521","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
