It helps shape Jewish social and                 family relationships, and even mandates how Jews should speak                 to others. But why is it important for Christians to understand                 this Jewish approach to life? And what kind of impact can                 understanding this fundamental aspect of Judaism have on                 Christians seeking to develop a deeper understanding of their                 own faith? \u003c\/p\u003eWith insight and wisdom, award-winning                 author Rabbi Elliot Dorff provides an accessible, honest and                 thorough exploration of this important Jewish concept. With                 easy-to-understand explanations of Jewish terms, practices and                 history, each chapter explores a different facet touched by the                 tradition of \u003ci\u003etikkun loam.\u003c\/i\u003e Rabbi Dorff also addresses parallel themes                 and practices in the Christian tradition, helping you better                 understand the roots of Christianity and how the fundamentals                 of Judaism relate and reflect your own aspirations to repair                 the world.             \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaring for the Poor \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Power of Words \u003c\/li\u003e            \u003cli\u003eThe Ministry of Presence \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuties of Spouses to Each                 Other \u003c\/li\u003e            \u003cli\u003eChildren’s Duties to                 Their Parents \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParent’s Duties to                 Their Children \u003c\/li\u003e            \u003cli\u003eThe Traditional Jewish Vision                 of the Ideal World \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Turner Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150274052336,"sku":"9781580236874","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781580236874_p0.jpg?v=1763778149","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781580236874","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
