We are implicated each in the fate of one another. That is the substantive content of our current sense of unity. But it is a unity imposed, as it were, from outside. Neither antisemitism nor anti- Zionism, we believe, makes distinctions between Jews. Hence our collective vigilance, activity, and concern. But from within, in terms of its own self- understanding, the Jewish people evinces no answering solidarity.... For a people as for an individual, authenticity requires that the terms of identity proceed from within, not from outside.\" \u003cb\u003e- Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdl\u003eOne People?, first published in 1993, examines ways of mending the schisms between Reform and Orthodox Judaism, between religious and secular Jews in Israel, and between Israel itself and the diaspora - all of which have been deepened by the fierce and continuing controversy over the question of \"Who is a Jew?\"\u003cdl\u003eOne People? is a study of the background to this and related controversies. It traces the fragmentation of Jewry in the wake of the Enlightenment, the variety of Orthodox responses to these challenges, and the resources of Jew- ish tradition for handling diversity. Having set out the background to the intractability of the problems, it ends by examining the possibilities within Jewish thought that might make for convergence and reconciliation. Rabbi Sacks employs a variety of disciplines - history, sociology, theology, and halakhic jurisprudence - to clarify a subject in which these dimensions are inextricably interwoven. He also explores key issues such as the underlying philosophy of Jewish law, and the nature of the collision between tradition and modern consciousness.\u003cdl\u003eWritten for the general reader as well as the academic, this is a lucid and thought- provoking presentation of the dilemmas of Jewish Orthodoxy in modernity.\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"12\" style=\"display:none\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdl dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003etable{border-collapse:collapse}td{font-weight:bold;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:16px;border-style:solid;border-width:1px}th{font-family:sans-serif;font-size:16px;border-style:solid;border-width:1px}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCode:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"1\"\u003e9781592646265\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"2\"\u003eRabbi Jonathan Sacks\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"6\"\u003e1592646263\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"5\"\u003e9781592646265\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"9\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePages:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"7\"\u003e319\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"8\"\u003e5.5\" x 8.5\"\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"11\"\u003eMaggid\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDate:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"font-weight:normal;text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"10\"\u003e5\/15\/2024\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e","brand":"Rabbi Jonathan Sacks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51019509399720,"sku":"9781592646265","price":18.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0534\/9765\/9560\/files\/9781592646265.jpg?v=1781048441","url":"https:\/\/judaicasquare.com\/products\/one-people","provider":"Judaica Square","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
