Proceedings of the Academy for Jewish Philosophy

This volume contains papers presented at the 1986, 1987 and 1988 annual meetings of the Academy for Jewish Philosophy. The articles reveal the views of Jewish philosphers on issues in Jewish religious thought such as the topics of hermeneutics, God-talk and idolatry. This book grew out of three annual meetings (1987, 1988, and 1989) of the Academy for Jewish Philosophy. The essays included in this volume deal with major issues of Jewish faith in our age and present a diversity of interpretations and positions by the leading Jewish thinkers in North America.
