Moving historically from the biblical period to the modern-day State of Israel, Authority and Dissent in Jewish Life discusses a range of those claims to authority from within the Jewish community itself. There is no single paradigm that characterizes these instances. Yet again and again the same causes of disagreement arise: interpretation and application of authoritative texts, appropriate ways to remember and memorialize figures from the past, the extent to which traditional leadership roles should (or should not) change in keeping with new cultural or political contexts, the degree to which long-held beliefs and long-practiced rituals are (or are not) susceptible to modification or abandonment, and the tension members of a Jewish community may feel when their leaders make pronouncements at odds with the political policies of the secular state in which they live. Written accessibly, the essays in this collection examine these phenomena from a wide variety of approaches, genres, and media. They pay close attention to the historical and religious settings of the controversies they analyze, yet also allow for ample reflection on the larger issues of authority and dissent that each occurrence raises"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aStudies in Jewish civilization ;$vVolume 31. 606 $aJews$xPolitics and government 606 $aJewish leadership$xHistory 606 $aLeadership$xReligious aspects$xJudaism 606 $aAuthority$xReligious aspects$xJudaism 610 $aSocial groups: religious groups & communities 615 0$aJews$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aJewish leadership$xHistory. 615 0$aLeadership$xReligious aspects$xJudaism. 615 0$aAuthority$xReligious aspects$xJudaism. 676 $a296.6/7 700 $aGreenspoon$b Leonard J$4edt$0895122 702 $aGreenspoon$b Leonard J$g(Leonard Jay), 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910510588903321 996 $aAuthority and dissent in Jewish life$94148138 997 $aUNINA
