{"product_id":"dynamic-judaism-emanuel-goldsmith-9780823213108","title":"Dynamic Judaism: The Essential Writings of Mordecai M. Kaplan","description":"Mordecai M. Kaplan was born in a small Lithuanian town on the outskirts of Vilna on a Friday evening in June of 1881. Kaplan was raised in a predominately Jewish atmosphere, which is shown by the fact that he knew his day of birth only by the Jewish calendar until he went to the New York Public Library as a young man to look up the corresponding date. His family was extremely traditional, and his father, Israel Kaplan, was a learned man.Kaplan's concept of Judaism as an evolving religious civilization was widely influential in 20th-century American Jewish life, and his founding of the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College created a new denomination. This book contains a biographical essay and excerpts from all of his major works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emanuel Goldsmith, Mel Scult\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0823213102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780823213108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fordham University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.80w x 0.70d","brand":"Emanuel Goldsmith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44128569590015,"sku":"9780823213108","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d08b7959-dc8e-4716-b948-324cd136d058.jpg?v=1687459335","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dynamic-judaism-emanuel-goldsmith-9780823213108","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
