God-Talk

David Novak, one of the most distinguished Jewish theologians in the world, offers a new interpretation of how the Jewish people and the Jewish tradition talk about God. The book asks what the Torah says about God, how the God of the Torah speaks about Godself, and how that God speaks about human beings.

It traces the history and theology of God-talk in Judaism. It also argues that this way of speaking remains relevant now more than ever and speaks directly to contemporary issues such as human rights.
