Unlocking the Torah Text Set
Unlocking the Torah Text provides an in-depth journey into the Torah portion through a series of studies on each parsha. Each study opens with a brief summary of the narrative and then presents probing questions designed to strike to the core of the text. These questions are addressed through a review of traditional commentaries spanning the ages, combined with original approaches. Deep philosophical issues and perplexing textual questions are carefully examined and discussed in clear and incisive fashion. The actions and motivations of the patriarchs, matriarchs and other biblical figures are probed with an eye towards determining the lessons to be learned from the lives of these great personalities. Clear distinction is made between pshat (straightforward literal meaning) and Midrash (rabbinical exegesis) as both of these approaches to biblical text are carefully defined and applied. Finally, thought-provoking connections are raised between the eternal Torah narrative and critical issues of our time. Each study is thus constructed to encourage continued discussion and study of the Torah narrative.

Gender Relationships in Marriage and Out
"The Orthodox Forum, which brings participants from around the world to an annual discussion on issues of concern to the Jewish community, focused at its 2005 gathering on "Gender Relations: In Marriage and Out." Presenters gave papers on the history of relationships from Talmudic times through the 19th century, on the sociology of the Jewish community today, on the halakhic questions people raise in the anonymity of the Internet, on the psychological and religious issues involved in single-hood and on how we might better prepare young people for adulthood. The concluding paper gives hope for the future; it is a Life Values curriculum for day schools from the early grades through high school."--BOOK JACKET.
