Summary for The Wondering Jew My Journey into Judaism It all began with a promise a promise I made to my father, a promise that led me on a journey into the heart and soul of Judaism. The result is this book, filled with intensely personal stories that helped me unlock some of the complicated teachings that make Judaism such a difficult religion to understand. The reader will learn, in a very unique way, the basics of the Jewish religion Torah, Hebrew Bible, the holidays and the traditions. You will laugh, you will cry, you will question as you are challenged to contemplate the mysteries of Judaism angels and reincarnation, reward and punishment, good and evil. I hope you will join me on this journey of discovery and wonder.
