Summary: In this pioneering study of Jewish thought, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks addresses a crucial dilemma for Jews and Judaism today. The Holocaust and the birth of the State of Israel have combined to create a strong contemporary awareness of peoplehood - of Jews as sharing a common history, destiny and responsibility. But can there be peoplehood across the deep religious and cultural divisions that are the heritage of the Jewish encounter with modernity? Crisis and Covenant, first published in 1992, is essential reading, not only for students of Jewish thought and modern Jewish history, but for all those concerned with the fate of religious traditions in a secular age.
