Comments

1. Excellent One-Volume Intro to Judaism - There really is no better one-volume introduction to Judaism. The oldest of the monotheistic religion, Judaism is deep, involved, and complex, but Telushkin's accessible prose and clear organization make it understandable for anyone. Jewish laws, history, celebrations--it's all here in one cover. I really cannot recommend this book enough. Small aside: a rabbi once said to a class of converts, "The reason there aren't many converts to Judaism is that in some religions, you can just hand out a pamphlet. In Judaism, when someone asks for information, you have to give them THIS!" And he whapped Telushkin's book down on the table, all linear inches of it. Want to know about Judaism? Read this book.

Comments

1. Brilliantly argued thesis that the god in the Bible has no control over suffering - The story of Job is a perfect example of God’s impotence. Job is “innocent,” yet allowed to suffer pointlessly, along with the needless death of his ten children. The text is a classic example of how man made Bronze Age religions have so little to say about substantive issues like morality.

2. A very thoughtful yet biblical book - I love books that challenge people to think outside their religious wormholes. This is one of those books. If we could learn to answer the question of suffering without dodging it, the World would be a better place. I too wish that more people would put more thought into why humans suffer instead of just believing what everyone else believes. But as a thinking Christian myself, I don't believe that Almighty God is in control of all things good and bad that happens on the earth anyway. Not saying that he isn't sovereign, but in His sovereignty He has limited himself to operate within the rules that He set up from the beginning. God gave man dominion over the earth, and he couldn't take it back once he gave it because He is God-- He can't lie or be an Indian-giver no matter what Job is recorded to have said. Thus He sent Jesus to die to at least give us some power and authority to make a difference in the world we occupy. So like a US ambassador in communist China, we now have the resources of Heaven available to us and can live in relative safety even with all hell breaking loose around us, but we have to do more. We have to tell our Gov't to intervene in our part of the world in Jesus' name as we are (or should be) ambassadors for the Anointed One who is Jesus, the Son of God whose Kingdom we have become a part of through faith (supposedly).

50. Secret Teachings of Moses - Aunel va Daath. Sex, the Soul, and God in the Garden of Eden

Release date: 2011-11-14 $7.99
Comments

1. Enlightening, Provocative and Lucid - Students of Kabbalah, Alchemy and mysticism will welcome this refreshing and revitalizing text on the Genesitic mysteries. This book explains the occult symbolism contained within the teachings of Moshe (Moses): Adam and Eve, the serpent, and the Garden of Eden, primarily through the esoteric meaning of the Hebrew letters. Unlike numerous texts on Kabbalah, this book is very different since it is one hundred percent practical and based on objective inquiry, internal investigation and the universal consensus of the world's great scriptures. It demonstrates that the Garden of Eden is not some mythological place outside of ourselves, that Adam and Eve were not literal people in the past, but spiritual archetypes that must be understood, developed and realized within ourselves, here and now. Such conclusions are derived from studying the original code and language of these texts, which is the Hebraic Kabbalah. The Hebrew alphabet contains, with its twenty-two characters, the entire meaning of the Tanakh or holy scriptures of Judaism. Since humanity was never initiated into the actual meaning of the Hebrew letters or its Kabbalistic tradition, available translations of the Old Testament fail to convey the rich dynamism and profound depth of Moshe's teaching. Without comprehension of the esoteric meaning of the Hebrew letters, it is impossible to properly interpret and understand the teachings given within the Old Testament, as well as the Christian and Muslim traditions that follow. To properly interpret the Hebraic scriptures, one must go to the source. Most people read these sacred books literally, ignoring that these teachings, especially the secret teachings of Moses, were written in Kabbalistic code, forming the basis of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The basis of this Kabbalistic code is Hebrew. This book establishes a powerful introduction into such mysteries, and can provide extensive tools for further study of the scriptures. This is an essential text for students and teachers of religion, particularly within the Judeo-Christian-Islamic faiths. If you are looking for a scientific, mystical and cultured explanation of these religions, and more importantly, how they apply to your spiritual life, then you will truly find this book to be enlightening, inspiring and transformative.
