You're not idiot, of course. You can serve up a mean s'il vous plait in a French bistro, live la vida loca for a night of margaritas, and manage a sayonara! after sushi, sake, and karaoke. But when it comes to throwing around a little Yiddish, you feel like a total nebbish! Don't throw your hands in a helpless "Oy, vey" just yet! The Complete Idiot's Guide to Learning Yiddish is your guide to this unique tongue, whether you're tackling rules of grammar or just throwing around some key phrases so you sound a little less goyish. In this Complete Idiot's Guide you get a fascinating explanation of how and why Yiddish developed, an easy introduction to the Yiddish alphabet, as well as the distinctive sound of Yiddish, and all the Yiddish you'll need for communicating with family and friends or for bargain-hunting on New York's Lower East Side. This book contains a treasury of Yiddish words and phrases for every occasion.
Ever since the earliest times, Jewish scholars have looked to the Hebrew language as a source of holiness and a wellspring of wisdom. This book gathers many examples of the meanings hidden within Hebrew words and has explained them to the modern reader. It presents Jewish insight and teachings.
While there are many Jewish books of names, Your Name Is Your Blessing is different. It uses the secrets of Kabbalah, the mystical teachings of spiritual masters of old, to explain the profound meanings hidden in every person's name. A name tells a story that captures a person's character and personality, and in Your Name Is Your Blessing Benjamin and Elaine Blech provide the gematria-the total numerical value of the name's letters, which is the starting point kabbalistic analysis-for hundreds of names, as well as biblical words, phrases, and blessings associated with these gematria. Useful for those exploring their own names and identities, as well as for parents searching for the perfect name for their child, Your Name Is Your Blessing is an essential reference.
Judaism is primarily a religion of actions rather than beliefs. When the Jewish people accepted God's covenant, they committed themselves first to obedience and practice, and then to striving to understand the message implicit in the Torah. This textbook presents a comprehensive explication of the Jewish faith.
