But its challenge to traditional authority revealed a new readiness--not least by Muslim women--to think freely and to speak out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCourageously challenging the jihadists, she identifies five key amendments to Islamic doctrine that Muslims have to make to bring their religion out of the seventh century and into the twenty-first.

From a spectrum of disciplines, state-of-the-art archeological breakthroughs, and fresh discoveries within scripture, he brings real evidence of a historical basis for the exodus -- the history behind the story. The biblical account of millions fleeing Egypt may be an exaggeration, but the exodus itself is not a myth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFriedman does not stop there. Known for his ability to make Bible scholarship accessible to readers, Friedman proceeds to reveal how much is at stake when we explore the historicity of the exodus. The implications, he writes, are monumental. We learn that it became the starting-point of the formation of monotheism, the defining concept of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Moreover, we learn that it precipitated the foundational ethic of loving one's neighbors -- including strangers -- as oneself.

According to their origin story, they wandered from Ur of Chaldees to Canaan, then Egypt, and then back to Canaan. From there, they were exiled to Babylon, where they lived for centuries. They also settled in Persia, Egypt, Morocco, Spain, Italy, Turkey, Poland, Ukraine, England, the United States, among many other places. Diaspora became normal to Jews, and though they may have hoped for a return to their \"Promised Land\" at the \"End of Days,\" they made sense of their many homes, defending diaspora as the realm where Jewish life could grow, and they could fulfil their obligations to God. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eEmbracing Exile\u003c\/em\u003e analyzes biblical and rabbinic texts, philosophical treatises, studies of Kabbalah, Hasidism, and a multiplicity of modern expressions. It offers revised readings of the Bible's book of Esther, a survey of Talmudic treatments of exile, an in-depth analysis of the thought of the early modern master, the Maharal of Prague, as well as the work of novelist Philip Roth, among other modern authors. David Kraemer shows that Diaspora Jews through the ages insisted that God joined them in their exiles, that \"Zion\" was found in Babylon and Eastern Europe, and that, as citizens of the world, Jews could only live throughout the world. The result is a convincing assertion that lament has not been the most common Jewish response to diaspora and that Zionism is not the natural outcome of either Jewish ideology or history. Kraemer also argues that as the world's most experienced surviving refugees, Jews also offer a model to more contemporary refugees, demonstrating how they may not only survive but thrive and endure.\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e David Kraemer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/1\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.05 lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.9\" H x 6\" L x 1.2\" W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780197623541\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Damascus Road","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42370032894046,"sku":"9780197623541","price":43.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/7584\/3166\/files\/9780197623541_dc319b08-e484-472d-a989-383af65e3d79.jpg?v=1774791929"},{"product_id":"the-triumph-of-the-moon-a-history-of-modern-pagan-witchcraft-ronald-hutton-paperback","title":"The Triumph of the Moon: A History of Modern Pagan Witchcraft -- Ronald Hutton, Paperback","description":"\u003cstrong\u003e'a brilliant history' \u003cem\u003eThe Sunday Times\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e'makes for riveting reading' \u003cem\u003eThe Independent\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModern pagan witchcraft is arguably the only fully-formed religion England has given the world, and has now spread across four continents.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis second edition of \u003cem\u003eThe Triumph of the Moon\u003c\/em\u003e extensively revises the first full-scale scholarly study of modern pagan witchcraft.
