Download and read online ebook Women Remaking American Judaism write by Riv-Ellen Prell. This book was released on 2007. Women Remaking American Judaism available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The rise of Jewish feminism, a branch of both second-wave feminism and the American counterculture, in the late 1960s had an extraordinary impact on the leadership, practice, and beliefs of American Jews. Women Remaking American Judaism is the first book to fully examine the changes in American Judaism as women fought to practice their religion fully and to ensure that its rituals, texts, and liturgies reflected their lives. In addition to identifying the changes that took place, this volume aims to understand the process of change in ritual, theology, and clergy across the denominations. The essays in Women Remaking American Judaism offer a paradoxical understanding of Jewish feminism as both radical, in the transformational sense, and accomodationist, in the sense that it was thoroughly compatible with liberal Judaism. Essays in the first section, Reenvisioning Judaism, investigate the feminist challenges to traditional understanding of Jewish law, texts, and theology. In Redefining Judaism, the second section, contributors recognize that the changes in American Judaism were ultimately put into place by each denomination, their law committees, seminaries, rabbinic courts, rabbis, and synagogues, and examine the distinct evolution of women's issues in the Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, and Reconstructionist movements. Finally, in the third section, Re-Framing Judaism, essays address feminist innovations that, in some cases, took place outside of the synagogue. An introduction by Riv-Ellen Prell situates the essays in both American and modern Jewish history and offers an analysis of why Jewish feminism was revolutionary. Women Remaking American Judaism raises provocative questions about the changes to Judaism following the feminist movement, at every turn asking what change means in Judaism and other American religions and how the fight for equality between men and women parallels and differs from other changes in Judaism. Women Remaking American Judaism will be of interest to both scholars of Jewish history and women's studies.

This book was released on 2019-12-02. Eden Or Bust available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Miriam's Tambourine is a folktale all about regaining our primal wisdom and connection, and the act of empowerment and purification that allows this is Drumming! But it's so much more than that. For to receive her drum to play for that sacred purpose, we first must journey to find Miriam. And the folktale is the treasure map for that journey-in code. Miriam's own saga is the story of the eradication of the Female Divine at the hands of the Mosaic God. To find her we must speak to the Ancestors, reconnect with the wisdom of the Wild, and unwind our own religious history all the way back to a primal spirituality that still included the feminine in its notion of deity. The simple details of the folktale offer a pathway into a critical re-evaluation of fundamental Western concepts. These are beliefs that it is almost inconceivable to call into question as they are simultaneously the core values of our culture, the control mechanisms of that culture, and the justifications for that culture's rapacious colonizing behavior. This journey helps us question and transcend these assumptions. But what can break the status quo of an entire culture? Miriam is returning to answer just precisely this question. She is here to tell us that there is a way of living in which we belong to this planet in profound health and community. She's here to tell us where we got lost, and specifically what to do to find our way again. And when we see that there is a joyful, correct, biologically ethical way for us to live, we finally receive the benediction of compassion for ourselves that alone can foster the possibility of real compassion for anything-and everything-else. With all that said to prepare us for the journey, EDEN OR BUST!

Legends Reborn as Bedtime Stories is a new series which we are starting off with a stunningly illustrated title 'Miriam's Miraculous Tambourine' written by the first time author Ahuva Maoz. Ahuva is a very talented storyteller! Her interpretation of the ancient legend of Moses in which he led the Israelites out of Egypt, across the Red Sea, to freedom from slavery, flows effortlessly. And Alex Cherkasoff did an amazing job creating illustrations which are glowing with light and are bringing Ahuva's story to life. We are very proud to support new and upcoming authors. Some of them have been writing children's stories for most of their lives and some for just a few years, but never had a chance to see those stories in print and illustrated by professional illustrators.
