Synopsis
Gathering a wealth of dispersed material, some previously published and some new to print, Torah for Its Intended Purpose comprises twenty-one articles in a breadth of themes, from theology and exegesis to homiletics and Jewish law, Israel and the Jewish world, and their relation to the larger world. Diverse in genre, the essays, sermons, reviews—and one groundbreaking, dissenting responsum—chart a course that is scholarly and spiritual, yet engaged in social activism as well.
