The Jew in the Lotus
The Jew in the Lotus is a book about the meeting of two very different cultures – that of Judaism and that of Tibetan Buddhism. The book tells the story of a group of rabbis who travel to India to meet the Dalai Lama and learn about Tibetan Buddhism.
The book is very interesting and well-written. It gives a good insight into the differences between the two cultures, and how they can learn from each other. I would recommend it to anyone interested in either Judaism or Buddhism.
The Lion of Judea
The Lion of Judea by Simon Sebag Montefiore is an excellent book. It tells the story of Herod the Great, who was a king of Judea from 37-4 BCE. Herod was a complex figure, and Montefiore does an excellent job of presenting him in all his complexity.
Herod was a great builder, and many of the buildings that he built are still standing today. He was also a great military leader, and conquered many lands for Judea. However, Herod was also a cruel ruler, and killed many people, including his own family members.
Montefiore presents Herod’s life in a very even-handed manner, and allows the reader to make up their own mind about him. The Lion of Judea is an excellent book, and I highly recommend it.
The Covenant
The Covenant is a great book. The author, Naomi Ragen, has done an excellent job of creating a believable and compelling story. The characters are richly drawn and the plot is compelling. I found myself totally engrossed in the story and couldn’t put it down. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good story.
The Chosen
The Chosen is a book that will stay with you long after you have finished reading it. It is the story of two young men who are forced to confront the horrors of the Holocaust.
The first half of the book follows the life of Reuven Malter, a young Jew living in Poland. When the Nazis invade, Reuven is sent to a concentration camp. There he meets Danny Saunders, the son of a rabbi. The two become friends, and together they manage to survive the terrible conditions in the camp.
The second half of the book takes place after the war. Reuven has moved to America, where he is studying to be a rabbi. Danny has also moved to America, but he has chosen to become a psychiatrist. The two friends are reunited when Danny comes to treat Reuven for a nervous breakdown.
The Chosen is an unforgettable story of friendship, hope, and courage. It is also a powerful reminder of the human capacity for evil.
The Rebbe
The Rebbe is an amazing book and it has truly changed my life. It is one of those books that you can read over and over again and each time you will get something new out of it. The Rebbe’s teachings are so deep and profound, yet at the same time they are so simple and easy to understand. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to improve their life and their relationship with G-d.
