Must a Jew Believe Anything?

Synopsis

The crucial question for today's Jewish world, Menachem Kellner argues, is not whether Jews will have Jewish grandchildren, but how many different sorts of mutually exclusive Judaisms those grandchildren will face. Kellner's short, brisk, and accessible book examines how the split that threatens the Jewish future can be avoided. His lucid analysis of what religious faith means in classical Judaism leads logically to a new way of construing the relationship of Orthodoxy to non-Orthodox Jews and institutions.
