CAST into the metal of the bell of my old school, The Phillips Exeter Academy, are these words: — “Huc venite pueri ut viri sitis” “Come here, boys, to become men.” Kant defined education as “the process by which man becomes man.” We are not born men; nor do we come to manhood automatically on reaching one and twenty. To become human we have to take up and fulfill our human relationships. Of these I have selected the dozen most important. Merely to describe them, however, would do little good. Instead, on each of these relations, or humanities, I shall ask three rather ...

A significant tension exists between the modern scientific picture of the universe and the Biblical one. On the standard scientific picture, the universe started in a ‘Big Bang’ ‒ the explosion of a speck of highly concentrated matter 14 billion years ago. According to the Bible, God created the universe in six days about ten thousand years ago. On the scientific picture, the universe has evolved and continues to develop under the operation of fixed laws and chance. According to the Bible, God acts in the universe in providence and judgment, human beings are responsible for their ...

At first glance, the topics included in this volume may appear to be a series of disjointed and independent essays. These topics, in my opinion, cover recurring themes and questions that define much of Jewish theology. Any attempt to address Jewish theology comprehensively would require many volumes. This work is focused on a few key concepts only. It is intended for the beginner but hopefully contains sufficient information to also be of interest to the more advanced reader and prove the starting point towards greater study.
