The Inside Story
Hamilton Books (Verlag)
9780761868293 (ISBN)
Joseph Friedman, Biblical scholar and lawyer, gives a refreshingly different and exciting approach to the oldest story in the world, which has universal appeal. The Inside Story:Biblical Personalities contains themes of feminism, wholeness, wellness, and above all, how to connect with our Creator.
The book analyzes nineteen popular Biblical stories. It explores Judaism’s feministic roots while stating that all life contains a duality of physical and spiritual existence.
The reader will develop a better understanding of Judaism as well as a deeper appreciation of the role women play in organized religion.
