Thoughts on Judaism

Thoughts on Judaism written by Lillian Helen "Lily" Montague, the first woman to play an important role in progressive Judaism. The goal of the author of this short book is to explain his concept of Judaism as a living religion. The author tries to answer the questions, what are the life principles of Judaism? Why are they vital? How can they be applied in modern life? She dared to reveal her faith, for the experience of one soul, however insignificant in itself, can serve as evidence of the living faith that exists among us. Judaism is the sanctification of existing ideals, and these ideals are passed on from generation to generation. A religion based on conscience is a strong religion and places the highest demands on all human ability. The close connection between religion and life is undoubtedly an ideal that all cults emphasize. The beauty of Judaism is useless if people cannot consciously assimilate it into their lives. Before you can grasp it, you need to understand it. This book attempts to explain, as definitely and clearly as possible, the meaning of our faith as it appears to one Jewish believer.
