The Jewish Book of Why
|
|
Why are there kosher dietary laws, why
must the chapter of curses in the Torah be read quickly in a low
voice, and what's the point of visiting a body of water to empty
pockets of crumbs on Rosh Hashana? Kolatch writes lucidly and
knowingly, explaining the biblical, traditional and superstitious
sources of thousands of questions pertaining to Judaism; the
comprehensive index is expertly organized.
