What's Beyond the Bible Text?

What's Beyond the Bible Text? Does modern history simply echo the struggles of our ancestors? Does prophecy belong to everyone or only a select few? What are angels made of? Stanley M. Wagner and Israel Drazin are prolific authors, rabbis, and academic scholars who bring a fascinating selection of discussions on the Bible, all designed to stimulate discussion and stretch the imagination. Covering a wealth of themes, this book explores relevant and contemporary issues while cross-referencing the entire Torah. Modeling the Talmudic learning process of delving into a topic, each chapter presents open-ended questions on topical issues, raising discussions on legal, moral, and ethical issues as broad and disparate as marriage, sibling rivalry, animal rights, the afterlife, and the meaning of life.
