I was fascinated by this book. I read half of it with intense interest and a willingness to believe what I read. Then I did a little research on the web to see if there were any other accounts of this 'mfkzt' or 'ORMUS'. I found two things. Firstly, a lot of untrustworthy sites trying to sell ORMUS, claiming to have solid evidence of its amazing properties. Secondly, I found many scholarly debates which point out the lack of available evidence (the evidence can be purchased). As a result, I encourage readers to keep a skeptical perspective on this work. Gardner's view that Moses was descended from the Pharaohs has intriguing implications for interpretation of biblical works. However, Gardner's reports on events during the past century are ...

Choosing a Jewish Life: A Handbook for People Converting to Judaism and for Their Family and Friendsby: Anita Diamant February 01, 1998 Best Selling > Books > Jewish Life |
||
|
This is an excellent guide for anyone converting, and as I don't want to repeat the other reviews here I'll get straight to the point:
This book is excellent if your family is religious and your in-laws are jewish. Yet I am from a non-religious background and one of those rare single converts (no jewish boyfriend/fiance/husband). So pretty much half of the book is completely wasted on me, because even though the advice on how to tell your family, and how to get your jewish in-laws to accept you is great, it simply doesn't apply to singles like me. So I was a little disappointed that I wasted money on just about 50% of the book, but it is a nice introductory guide. Just not for singles with no religious upbringing. I would ...

How to Run a Traditional Jewish Householdby: Blu Greenberg 1990-12 Best Selling > Books > Jewish Life |
||
|
I bought and read this book when it first came out. It lead me on a spiritual journey which will soon be completed upon my conversion to Judaism. While Ms. Greenberg may not have started out with that intent upon writing the book, I can only imagine what other lives this book has had a similar impact on. A "must have" in any library!

||
|
The Wisdom in the Hebrew Alphabet is an outstanding book. It begins by giving a clear overview of how and why the aleph bet contains hidden, deeper meanings. It cites, for example, 'how the combination of letters, as formulated by the spiritual masters who composed the prayers, have the power to arouse spritual forces beyond our imagination'-as anyone who is a regular in shul would understand. It then goes on to explain what each letter can teach us, constantly referring to the Sages throughout. This book is truely a masterpeace-for those who are frum already, it will only reaffirm your faith and allow you to learn Torah better. If your thinking of buying this book for someone who is not so frum, then it is also a good bet. Being able to speak or read Hebrew ... Read More:

The New Jewish Weddingby: Anita Diamant September 16, 2002 Best Selling > Books > Jewish Life |

As someone beginning to plan an interfaith marriage and who had no knowledge of Judiaism before meeting my fiance, this book was a good beginning. Diamant offers a step-by-step outline of a traditional Jewish ceremony, as well as the "before" and "after"--the tenaim, the ketubah and reception ideas. Also included are some guidelines about what is usually allowed or disallowed for interfaith couples and suggestions about how to still incorporate the Jewish feel to certain things (like the mikvah bath for the non-Jewish partner).
