Book Description:

Many Latter-day Saints seem to have approached their faith and their Scriptures from a conservative Protestant perspective; however, what would the Latter-day Saint religious experience look like if they approached it from a Jewish perspective? This book is about Latter-day Saints learning from Jews and the Jewish experience by bringing together sixteen scholars, eight Jewish and eight Latter-day Saint, with a combined academic experience of over four hundred years. Topics include: scripture, authority, prayer, women and modernity, remembrance, particularity, humor, and chosenness.
