Rabbi Harris takes material that is known only as dry and antiquated--if known at all--and works his magic. What emerges is lively and contemporary--worthy of being known by many! --Nancy Fuchs Kreimer, Director, Multifaith Studies and Initiatives, Reconstructionist Rabbinical College In this accessible and vivid biographical study, Rabbi Joshua ben Hananiah emerges as a humble, wise leader who promotes an ethos of vigorous debate in the disorienting years following the destruction of the Second Temple. Through a close, incisive reading of the foundational stories of rabbinic Judaism, Harris forges astute connections between the challenges of that era and contemporary, post-Holocaust Judaism. An unforgettable portrait of a little-known sage and his times. --Rena Blumenthal, author of The Book of Israela Author InformationMaurice D. Harris is a rabbi and writer based in Glenside, Pennsylvania. His previous books are Moses: A Stranger among Us (2012) and Leviticus: You Have No Idea (2013), both from Cascade Books.
