Beskrivelse
This book is a compilation of the the best of a decade of editorials that have appeared in the Heritage Jewish News, a weekly newspaper published in Central Florida. These editorials began as explorations into community building and tikkun olam - changing the world positively - but grew into inquisitive, sometimes humorous, occasionally curmudgeonly conversations about what it means to be a Jew and a human being. They run the gamut from personal, introspective pieces to reflections on God and existence, from serious discussions on death and loss to comic parodies of popular trends and personalities. They cover topics as general as holidays, peace and terrorism, economics, parenting, dogs, baseball, the follies of aging and the wisdom of youth, all tied back to a Jewish context. This collection of essays is a snapshot of a time, a window open to a world of slightly offbeat possibilities, a permission slip to ask any question at any time. Questioning, thinking, exploring - that's what The Good Word is all about.
