"A passionately poetic devotion to the ideal of religious living, one that is serious without being preachy. When Fishbane tells us that the reality of God erupted into Jewish consciousness at Sinai, and that we have been trying to make sense of and respond to that event ever since, it is clear that he has been doing this in his own life for a very long time." - Tikkun "A profoundly honest quest for authentic theological expression.... I was deeply engaged in what is a nuanced, personal, and very adult guide to the experience of faith." - Forward"
"Sacred Attunement" is Michael Fishbane's attempt to renew Jewish theology for our time, in the larger context of modern and postmodern challenges to theology and theological thought in the broadest sense. Fishbane regrounds theology in this setting and opens up new pathways through nature, art, and the theological dimension as a whole. After introducing his hermeneutical theology, Fishbane focuses on modes of self-cultivation for awakening and sustaining a covenant theology. Finally, he takes up questions of scripture, authority, belief, despair, and obligation as theological topics in their own right. "Sacred Attunement" is a work of uncommon personal integrity and originality from one of the most distinguished scholars of Judaica in our time.
