1969 1400255 The New York Times "One of the ten best Jewish religious books of the year." This classic work presents all of the fundamental laws and traditions pertaining to Jewish death and mourning. A best-seller since its publication in 1969, The Jewish Way in Death and Mourning has been praised by scholars and laymen alike for its presentation of the traditional point of view in modern psychological terms.

The Jewish Way in Love and Marriage
Lamm, Maurice
1982 10013484 "A stimulating and thought-provoking book." -- The New Review. "A stupendous work that every Jewish family should read and that should be required reading for all those contemplating marriage." "A welcome arrival.Will enlighten those from varied backgrounds." -- Judaica Book News. "By presenting the institutions of marriage in the light of the traditions and laws of the Bible with respect to romantic love, premarital sex, homosexuality, interfaith marriage, and extramarital affairs, and by allowing those traditions and laws to speak for themselves as their principles are applied to our own times, Maurice Lamm synthesizes the values of the Jewish concept of marriage which encourages both durability and excitement. The questions of preferences and prohibitions in finding a marriage partner, the purposes of marriage, the rights and obligations of each partner, and a detailed description of all the events before, during, and after the marriage ceremony itself are beautifully illuminated. A meaningful gift in celebration of the rededication of husband and wife, each to the other." -- Jewish World The author of the widely heralded Jewish Way in Death and Mourning succeeds in authoring an eminently readable and impressively documented book on love and marriage in the Jewish tradition. With the traditions and laws of the Bible as his base, Rabbi Lamm portrays the great effort Judaism has expended in creating and maintaining the institution of marriage. He shows how indispensable it is to society as a whole and to the Jewish community in particular. He summarizes the traditional views of marriage and explores the outward symbols, practices, and customs of the traditional wedding ceremony, explaining their significance.
