Saying, Writing, Doing: Understanding the Relationship Between Jewish Law and the Torah
Leon Wiener Dow, a research fellow and a faculty member at the Shalom Hartman Institute, recently published The Going: A Meditation on Jewish Law (Palgrave Macmillan). He received his BA from Princeton University, his MA in Jewish thought from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, private rabbinic ordination from Rabbi Professor David Hartman, and a PhD in philosophy from Bar-Ilan University. His other writings include a book, Uvlekhtekha Vaderekh (Hebrew, Bar Ilan University Press, 2017), which constructs an approach to halakha based on the thought of Franz Rosenzweig, and essays and articles with Haaretz, Jewish Journal, The Times of Israel, Lilith and others. Raised in Houston, Wiener Dow lives in Jerusalem with his wife and their five children.
Copies of his new book, The Going, will be available for 40% off the cover price ($35 instead of $55).
