Publisher's Synopsis
The Jewish Dilemma is a thought-provoking book written by Elmer Berger, a prominent Jewish theologian and leader. In this book, Berger explores the complex and often contentious relationship between Judaism and Zionism, and the challenges faced by Jews in the modern world. He argues that the Zionist movement, which seeks to establish a Jewish state in Palestine, is at odds with the traditional Jewish belief in universalism and social justice. Berger also critiques the notion of Jewish exceptionalism and the idea that Jews are a chosen people, arguing that these beliefs have led to a sense of superiority and isolationism that is detrimental to Jewish identity and values. The book offers a nuanced and insightful analysis of the Jewish experience, and challenges readers to rethink their assumptions about Judaism, Zionism, and the Jewish people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
