A Spanish translation of The Jewish Book of Why. Este libro de gran venta investiga más de 500 preguntas básicas acerca del judaísmo. En un lenguaje sencillo y directo, el Rabino, Dr. Kolatch explica la creencia de los judíos, cómo observan sus festividades, el significado de sus costumbres y ceremonias, y las diferencias que hay entre las otras sectas relìgiosas.

Entre las preguntas contestadas están:

* Por qué un niño nacido de padre judío no se considera necesariamente judío?

* Por qué las oposición a la maternidad subrogada?

* Por qué algunos seminarios ordenan mujeres?

* Por qué se circunsidar los niños judíos?

* Por qué se quiebra un vaso en la ceremonia nupcial?

* Por qué el cerdo y el camarón no son aceptados por las leyes de cashrut?


El Libro Judío del Por Qué, hace una contribución muy importante para evitar alejamiento por malo entendidos e ideas erróneas que rodean a la observancia judía. Tanto judíos y así como no judíos encontrarán este libro de mucha enseñanza.
