Sinossi

The teachings of the great twentieth-century Jewish thinker Martin Buber empower us to enter a spiritual dimension that often passes unnoticed in the daily routine. In <i>A Year with Martin Buber</i>, the first Torah commentary to focus on his life&#8217;s work, we experience the fifty-four weekly Torah portions and eleven Jewish holidays through Buber&#8217;s eyes.<br><br> While best known for the spiritual concept of the I-Thou relationship between people, Buber graced us with other fundamentals, including Over Against, Afterglow, Will and Grace, Reification, Inclusion, and Imagine the Real. And his life itself&#8212;including his defiance of the Nazis, his call for Jewish-Arab reconciliation, and his protest of Adolf Eichmann&#8217;s execution&#8212;modeled these teachings in action.<br><br> Rabbi Dennis S. Ross demonstrates Buber&#8217;s roots in Jewish thought and breaks new ground by explaining the broader scope of Buber&#8217;s life and work in a clear, conversational voice. He quotes from the weekly Torah portion; draws lessons from Jewish commentators; and sets Buber&#8217;s related words in context with Buber&#8217;s remarkable life story, Hasidic tales, and writing. A wide variety of anecdotal illustrations from Buber as well as the author&#8217;s life encourages each of us to &#8220;hallow the everyday&#8221; and seek out&#160;spirituality &#8220;hiding in plain sight.&#8221; &#160;<br> &#160;
