Bamidbar / Numbers | Cardozo on the Parashah: Essays on the Weekly Torah Portion: Volume 4

Rabbi Nathan Lopes Cardozo was described by former British Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks as "one of the most thoughtful voices in contemporary Judaism". In this collection of essays on the Book of Numbers, Rabbi Cardozo confirms his status as one of the leading Torah thinkers and educators of our time. As in his previous works, he seeks out insights at the frontiers of religious thinking. In this book, you will encounter a Torah that challenges you to become a better person, be more responsive to fellow human beings, and to be more God-like and creative.

“Cardozo on the Parashah: Essays on the Weekly Torah Portion takes the reader on a journey from the world of the Bible, to the philosophy of Spinoza, to the spiritual authenticity of the Kotzker Rebbe, all the way back to the personal life of the modern seeker”.

— Rabbi Ari Zeev Schwartz, Dean of the Society of Independent Spirituality

“The prevailing value of this book is its potential to jolt the reader from a religious somnambulism that idealizes robotic routine over spiritual search for meaning, empty ritual over an attempted relationship with God.”

— Rabbi Shmuel Phillips, author
