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.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Jonathan Sacks</note> <subject> <topic>Judaism</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Covenant (Theology)</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>History</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">296.09</classification> <classification authority="ddc">S119-J76</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780719042034, 0719042038</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15272/1.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15272/1.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071447.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
