Our Rabbis Taught Essays in Commemoration of the Centennial of the Central Conference of American Rabbis

Tanu Rabbanan includes four discourses which together present the agenda of the American Reform rabbinate at this milestone: "The Rabbi as Religious Figure", "United Within Diversity", "Israel and the Reform Rabbinate" and "The Next Century". Historical overviews of the Conference complete this volume. As the CCAR Press enters into its second century, this book of essays addresses the forever timely questions as to whether rabbinic authority is ascribed or earned; whether there are or should be boundaries of theology or practice; whether being a rabbi is primarily doing or being; and how to maintain rabbinic integrity and authenticity in the face of communal and societal pressures.Glaser, Joseph B. is the author of 'Our Rabbis Taught Essays in Commemoration of the Centennial of the Central Conference of American Rabbis' with ISBN 9780881230123 and ISBN 088123012X.
