THE MEANINGS OF JUDAISM
In
times of political and social stress as well as during periods of
ease, Jews have found it necessary to reevaluate their religious
priorities in relation to the cultures around them. Whether through
the instigation of a Catholic Church intent on exposing the fallacies
of Judaism or out of an urgency to understand the requirements of
Judaism within the context of the Civil Rights movement, Jews have
struggled to interpret and reinterpret the traditions that give
meaning to their lives as Jews. The films in this series offer four
readings of Jewish heritage. None excludes the others, but each
is an outgrowth of the background and personality of its interpreter.
