The Jewish tradition presents God in graphic, anthropomorphic terms and, at the same time, as beyond any description. Secularism and the Holocaust have blinded some of us to the realm of the transcendent altogether, but many others continue to experience the transcendent in both the everyday and the unusual but do not know how to unpack that experience. The editors of Imagining the Jewish God have thus wisely chosen to include many of the best minds and hearts and many types of materials, from philosophy to poetry, to help us see the range of Jews' attempt to describe their experience of the transcendent and what that experience means for their lives. -- Elliot Dorff, American Jewish University, author of <I> Knowing God: Jewish Journeys to the Unknowable </I> There has long been in contemporary Jewish thought a large absence just where, one imagined, God ought to be. This volume's editors and contributors jump bravely into the breach, armed only with classical scholarship, philosophic understanding, literary sensitivity, moral urgency and, before and after all else, imagination. The result is this passionate book, gathering living ideas in mid-flight and words pushed to their limits, marking new traces across that Void. -- Yehudah Mirsky, Brandeis University, author of <I> Rav Kook: Mystic in a Time of Revolution </I>
