Reasonable, spiritual, authentic Judaism
Exploring a reasonable and relevant Judaism - authentic and current, inclusive and welcoming - Rabbi Jonathan opens and develops discussions delving into Jewish life, learning, and meaning. “Jewish and...” means Judaism enhanced because today's Judaism is: multi-faith, multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, pluralist, pro-LGBTQ+, feminist, and multi-generational. “Jewish and…” starts with Jewish sources: Torah, Midrash, Talmud, Commentaries, Israel, Yiddish, Hebrew, Food, Klezmer, and anything else that connects us to our Jewish selves.
And from Rami Shapiro's translation, Proverbs 2:14-15 (p. 32):
You can, of course, forsake the upright path and wander in the dark.
You can take pleasure in evil and rejoice in clouding the mind with words.
You can choose the crooked road or one with no way out.
And still wisdom will rescue you.
