Thirteen Petaled Rose
A Discourse on the Essence of Jewish Existence and Belief
by Adin Steinsaltz, Yehuda Hanegbi
From Madonna's music videos to the glossy pages of celebrity magazines and back to the Lower East Side of Manhattan, Jewish mysticism has stepped into the modern consciousness like never before. In this classic work, world-renowned scholar Adin Steinsaltz answers the major questions asked by modern Jews about the nature of existence in God's universe. The title The Thirteen Petaled Rose is taken from the opening of the classic Jewish text on mysticism, the Zohar, and refers to the collective souls of the Jewish people, which scholars have likened to the fullness of a rose and its thirteen petals.
