Editorial Review

Product Description
This text offers the first full-length study of Mordecai M. Kaplan since his death in 1983. The most distinctive feature is the broad range of perspectives from which Kaplan is viewed. Although most of the essays are appreciative of Kaplan's significance, they are critical rather than hagiographic. Readers will find here an historical context for the life and works of Mordecai Kaplan. Essays dealing with key issues in Kaplan's career focus on the establishment of the Jewish Center, Kaplan's life at the Jewish Theological Seminary, and his relationship to Israel Friedlaender and Milton Steinberg. Kaplan's Jewish and non-Jewish contemporaries, including John Dewey, Henry Nelson Weiman, Ahad Ha-Am, Martin Buber, and A.J. Heschel, are presented in terms of comparison and influence. Kaplan's metaphysics, his interpretation of the Bible, his views on education, economic justice, and the role of women are given full consideration. This work also includes a complete bibliography of Kaplan's works beginning with his first publication in 1907 and ending with those works published posthumously. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars A valiant try
Scult makes the effort to see Kaplan as a major force in restructuring and enhancing Jewish 'civilization' as a whole. While Kaplan was without doubt a major Jewish twentieth century figure the results of his efforts are not particularly encouraging. The Jewish people it seems need God far more than they need Kaplan's 'God idea'. The Jewish people once they follow Kaplan's prescription andmake of their religious life a ' tradition' only, lose a dimension of meaning not easily gained elsewhere.. Is it surprising then that what we have today in the Jewish world is so so much assimilation on the one hand, and a growth in a more narrow kind of Haredi Judaism?
Kaplan was a prolific, and in certain ways heroic figure.But his ideas and his whole view - of - the -world did not bring about true Jewish renewal. And the long- term beneficial results of his effort seem to be minor indeed.

Editorial Review

Product Description
A Night of Questions is a unique four-in-one Haggadah that includes outlines for customizing a Seder for the people present at the table. The four menus include a Seder for young children, a Seder for older children with adults, a Seder for groups of diverse backgrounds (including those who are not Jewish), and a Seder focusing on the role of women.

The Haggadah also features special color-coded graphic icons that highlight the different types of readings such as kavanot, which are introductions to the text that set the tone for the text, and readings for children. Readings and songs are drawn from a wide variety of sources, representing the diversity of the Jewish community and the world in which we live. Accompanying the text is compelling new artwork by Jeffrey Schrier, which itself serves as a commentary on the Haggadah liturgy. This 10th Anniversary Hardcover edition is a great gift for a special seder. Give this as a gift to a host or a long-time congregational supporter, or just a friend who wants a beautiful and durable copy of this Passover classic. 'This publication of the 10th anniversary edition is a celebration of the impact of A Night of Questions and a tribue to its continuing and special role in enabling Jews to gather to enact an ancient ritual and create new Jewish meaning' - Carl Sheingold, EVP of the Jewish Reconstructionist Federation. ...

2-0 out of 5 stars Intifada?
I was as intrigued and inspired by this Haggadah as any reviewer.I was taken aback and jolted out of my spiritual reverie when during the seder we read a passage that lamented Pharoah not responding to the Jewish 'intifada'.So, the authors compared the defiance of 450 years of Jewish slavery to the Palestinian uprising of our time.In using the word, 'Intifada' the authors had to intend for the audience to draw parallels between both uprisings, thus making a bold political statement that alienated myself and others at the table.I wouldn't recommend this Hagaddah unless one has strong leftist tendencies vis a vis Israeli politics and can stomach that kind of comparison being made during one's Passover seder.

5-0 out of 5 stars The only liberal Haggadah you will need
This year we had 25 to Sedar, so I ordered extra copies.
If you are looking for a liberal hagaddah, it has tremendous breadth and depth.

5-0 out of 5 stars Most User-Friendly Haggadah
I have somewhere between 20 and 30 different Haggadot.A Night of Questions is not only one of the richest and most thought-provoking in my collection... it is also the most user-friendly. It's the only one that has a table of contents that breaks down the Maggid section into its familiar parts (4 Children, Dayenu, etc.)The outlines of 4 different types of seders in the back of the book are very helpful. There's something here for every one.The commentaries address the hard questions that are likely to arise in the minds of those who are really thinking about what we are saying, such as:"Would it really have been 'enough for us' had we come out of Egypt and not been given the Torah and not come into the Land of Israel?" IMPORTANT NOTE: I see that Amazon is showing this as 4-6 weeks delivery.I know that they are available from the publisher and you'll have them in time for Passover.Check out www.jrf.org."

5-0 out of 5 stars Refreshing new Haggadah
This Haggadah has wonderful, contemporary discussions and presentations.The illustrations are beautiful.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Best to Date
I have conducted sedorim (seders) for over 30 years and have used five different haggadot. This is the BEST! It explains, offers excellent commentary, provides choices in the kind of seder one might have, as well as providing frameworks for designing your own. I have used it for 2 years now and get rave reviews from the people who attend my sedorim.

The cd of the music of Pesach which is available, is a favorite as we prepare our home for the holiday.

It sure beats "Manishewitz". ... Read more

Product Description
The first new Reconstructionist High Holy Day prayer book to be published since 1948, the Mahzor is an inclusive, comprehensive volume for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur services; one that is rooted in the traditional Hebrew liturgy, yet fully contemporary. Some of the most prominent features of this volume are:-All readings appear within the text, simplifying the selection of material for services.-Constructed with a special strong, reinforced library quality binding.-Printed on very thin, lightweight opaque paper.-A new section, Kabbalat Hashanah, has been created to begin the erev Rosh Hashanah service.-For Rosh Hashanah, the Mahzor can be used for a traditional shofar service and full Musaf, or combining the two in several different ways.-On Yom Kippur, the Musaf service and Martyrology are integrated with the Avodah service creating a powerful, seamless whole. ...
