He presents core components of a theory and practice of contemporary Judaism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The Hebrew alphabet has long beguiled and preoccupied Biblical authors and liturgical poets, rationalists and mystics, conservatives and radicals. It has served as a locus of theological speculation, an engine of creativity and a recurrent motif throughout the cycle of life, from childhood instruction to graveside recitation. For each letter of the Hebrew alphabet, Marmur proposes a concept, gleaned from theology, philosophy, ritual, politics, community and other fields. Readers are invited to combine and deploy them in imagining a Judaism of tomorrow. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This is an open access book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Marmur\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3031810406\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783031810404\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/04\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 412\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Michael Marmur","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46747801157887,"sku":"9783031810404","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ed3a85c8-09a4-4daf-a156-089d008f58b3.jpg?v=1743584773","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/living-the-letters-michael-marmur-9783031810404","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
