    What is the goal of Jewish education? Is it to fill students' brains with Jewish knowledge? Or is it to fill their hearts and souls with Jewish values?Jewish educators across the denominational spectrum envision not just a student possessing a particular body of knowledge, but a type of person with particular traits and proclivities, a person grounded in, and engaged with, his or her community and society, whose actions are guided not by transient mores but rather by a lasting value system based on a vision of meaning and purpose.Educators are increasingly being called upon to help students develop the skills needed for social, emotional, and spiritual development as well as to provide opportunities for students to practice the use of these skills and to integrate them into a sense of self. Innovative efforts have been undertaken by Jewish educators to promote outcomes in the intra- and inter-personal realms. The goal of this volume is to bring these efforts together to provide an overview of what is happening, what is possible, and what might be learned from the experiences of these educators.

History comes to life, helping students whether elementary, middle or high school, or adult develop a stronger Jewish identity.Teaching Jewish History gives teachers the tools to:Understand and explain the meaning of key concepts, terms, names, places, and events in each period of history.Identify and examine primary source documents and objects such as artifacts, diaries, sacred texts, photographs, and artwork.Conduct meaningful discussions of how the core concepts of Jewish history recur in and are relevant to each historical period.Develop a variety of activities including field trips, mock trials, oral histories, and role-playing activities.Place historical events on a timeline.Use additional historical and educational resources such as books, articles, videos, and Internet sites.Teaching Jewish History is an invaluable resource for the novice and the expert teacher of religious and day school children and for educators working with adults in synagogues, community centers, and family education programs.

    On January 20, 2006, Ilan Halimi, chosen because he was Jewish, was kidnapped and taken to an apartment in Bagneux, France. He was held and tortured there for over three weeks before being thrown into the woods by his executioners. Found naked along a railroad track, he did not survive his ordeal. In this poignant memoir, originally published in French, Ruth Halimi, Ilan's mother, recalls the twenty-four days of this nightmare during which she received over 600 phone calls, ransom demands that constantly changed, insults, threats, and pictures of her tortured son. Police procedures repeatedly failed. The case was eventually solved and the kidnappers, who later earned the name of "le Gang des Barbares," led by an Ivorian immigrant, Youssouf Fofana, were arrested by police. What shocked the public at the time was that Fofana and his gang members claimed openly that they thought Jews were wealthy and united, and for this reason they imagined the Jewish community would pull together to pay a large ransom for Halimi's release. The English edition"€"a joint publication of Behrman House, Inc. and the Anti-Defamation League"€"includes a new foreword and modern-day news vignettes that show the alarming rise of anti-Semitism across countries and cultures everywhere.

    "This book offers a description and analysis of six classic Jewish views of death: the concept of death as nothingness; a belief in a descent to Sheol . . . where the dead are supposed to dwell; the concept of resurrection in an afterlife . . .; faith in the immortality of the soul; a belief in reincarnation; and the concept of attaining immortality through deeds of value performed in life".--AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD.

    Rabbi Richard Address has devoted his career to helping transform synagogues into caring communities. Now, in his most personal work to date, he explores how the notion of a caring community can be transformative for individuals, particularly baby boomers struggling with issues of aging and mortality."Who am I? Why am I here?" These are questions that guide us--or haunt us--our entire lives. As we age, these questions take on new relevance, all the more so as we face the daunting challenges of our aging society. We are seeing the health of our parents decline. We are deferring retirement in a difficult economy. We are becoming caregivers for loved ones. We are struggling with our own issues of health and wellness. Where do we turn for guidance in navigating these uncharted waters? Where do we now seek meaning in our lives?The answer, argues Rabbi Address, is to be found in our relationships. Using key texts from the Torah, he shows that the foundation of a happy and healthy life is the meaning we seek in it in the community of others--our family, our friends, our congregations--and in our most fundamental relationship, with the very Mystery behind our own existence. This "theology of relationships" can bring much needed change to the Jewish communities that have nurtured us for so much of our lives, and help us make for ourselves an older adulthood that is healthy and sacred.CONTENTS:PrefaceAcknowledgementsIntroduction: Our Time of TransitionChapter 1: Our Fundamental RelationshipChapter 2: The Fundamental QuestionChapter 3: Letting Go and Moving ForwardChapter 4: The God of Our Future?Chapter 5: The Holiness of CaregiversChapter 6: The Choices We MakeChapter 7: Four Core Values for Our FutureReferences
