Summary: Part One surveys the growth of Judaism from pre-Biblical days to the present, taking up in turn Biblical, Rabbinic and Modern Judaism and showing how one grew into the other. Intensely interesting is his description of the differences that exist between the three branches of Modern Judaism: Orthodox, Conservative and Reform. Part Two describes Jewish worship through the various seasonal holidays, and the Jewish sense of "chosenness" which makes for his unique relationship with his God. Part Three takes us through Jewish life from the cradle to the grave. The reader will discover that Judaism is essentially a "religion of the home" and that its practices influence every aspect and moment of Jewish life. In a final chapter the author explains how Jews feel about such things as sin, resurrection and immortality, the Messiah.
