Traces the evolution of Jewish thought about bodily resurrection and spiritual immortality, and what it means for our lives today.
Combines astute scholarship with keen historical, theological and liturgical insights to outline the evolution of Jewish thought about bodily resurrection and spiritual immortality. A strikingly innovative statement on resurrection and immortality
