Love and Joy by Yochanan Muffs, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This is a book about law and religion. It opens with a study of prophetic intercession as a response to the tensions inherent in monotheism, the struggles between love and justice that seem to take place within Israel's God. The final chapters concern the rich legal vocabulary in which Israelites expressed ideas of freedom and spontaneity. The intervening essays also deal with legal language and concepts in religious contexts. | Love and Joy by Yochanan Muffs, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
