Bøger af Abraham Cohen

Imagining the Bible - Mar-e Cohen Bible consists of Bible stories in their original text (the Hebrew Biblical text as it appears in the Leningrad Bible), illustrated with artwork by the great artists of history, including Rembrandt, Tissot, Hoet, Dore, and many others. It is a mosaic of story and image, old and new, a memory of the days of old. Its goal is to help children, adolescents and adults embrace the legacy of the Bible and appreciate it. The book of Exodus opens with the Story of the Hard Slavery and passes through the other stories, including the Birth of Moses, the Burning Bush, the Signs, the Plagues, Exodus, the Crossing of the Red Sea, Water from the Rock, the War against Amalek, the Ten Commandments, the Golden Calf - and ends with the Tabernacle Foundation. This book is part of the "Imagining the Bible" series-stories from the Torah, Prophets, and Writings.

This groundbreaking book was among the most important of those that presented the teachings of Maimonides, as represented by his many published works, as a unified whole, thus bringing about a renaissance in the study of this seminal scholar. The author, the Reverend Abraham Cohen, states in his original introduction that ¿the spirit which animated [Maimonides¿] mind and pervades his writings is as much needed now as ever before.¿ Academic Studies Press is proud to make this important work once again available in printed form.

"To some readers of this book, the Talmud represents little more than a famous Jewish book. But people want to know about a book that, they are told, defines Judaism. Everyman''s Talmud is the right place to begin not only to learn about Judaism in general but to meet the substance of the Talmud in particular . . . In time to come, Cohen''s book will find its companion-though I do not anticipate it will ever require a successor for what it accomplishes with elegance and intelligence: a systematic theology of the Talmud''s Judaism."—From the Foreword by Jacob NeusnerLong regarded as the classic introduction to the teachings of the Talmud, this comprehensive and masterly distillation summarizes the wisdom of the rabbinic sages on the dominant themes of Judaism: the doctrine of God; God and the universe; the soul and its destiny; prophesy and revelation; physical life; moral life and social living; law, ethics, and jurisprudence; legends and folk traditions; the Messiah and the world to come.
