Rabbi Levi Meier | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Rabbi Meier uses his gifts as a rabbi and Jungian analyst to show how the Torah is eternal precisely because the "stories" in it are both universal and personal. He reveals how the Bible offers insight on a variety of issues from morality to empathy to the modern day malaise that sometimes affects those caught in the spinning wheels of wheels of work and family. Included are many novel interpretations of biblical stories and law that help the readers deal with the ambiguities of life, the significance of biblical paradox, and the centrality of evil in the world. For instance, when discussing the role of Joseph and his brothers, the author makes the observation that while "Joseph's brothers sold him into slavery, we don't do that, we sue."
