Customer Reviews

Very informative

This was an interesting book. For anyone who wants to get an understanding between the Reform and orthodox movements, it is recommended. It wasn't anything spectacular, but it gives a very good outline of the beliefs of Reform Judaism as opposed to Orthodox Judaism without being judgmental in any way.

Great for those New to Reform Judaism

My Rabbi required this book for his conversion students, and I found it to be the most informative, concise book about our fundamental beliefs concerning birth, death, marriage, holidays, and other major events. This book gives a broad view of the fundamental tenents of Reform without being oversimplified. It delves into the ethical considerations of major life occurences, and often contrasts Reform practice with Orthodox, explaining the difference between the two. I highly recommend it to anyone converting to Reform Judaism, or anyone searching for the 'how' and 'why' of the faith.
