Faith Without Fear

Faith without Fear examines key unresolved philosophical, theological, and ideological issues in the Modern Orthodox Jewish world. In addition to topics such as the status and role of women in Judaism and the challenge to traditional faith posed by modern biblical scholarship, Harris also explores issues which have received little scholarly attention such as Modern Orthodoxy's relationship with Jewish mysticism, its hopes for the messianic era, and the fundamental nature and commitments of Modern Orthodoxy."--Back cover.
