Mans Responsibility : A Jewish Guide To Being A Son A Partner In Marriage A

A provocative look at how a new generation of Jewish men can grow spiritually, and in doing so, strengthen the intangible bonds of family, love, duty and truth, which ultimately lead to God. It unearths the male stereotypes that exist in Judaism and color our expectations for what it means to be a Jewish man in today’s world. It examines Jewish sources that reveal the traditional life cycle of a man–from son to partner in marriage to father–and in the process uncovers the ideals that define being a Jewish man. It also views Jewish men within the context of a sacred community and explores what this concept means for the sacred obligations of manhood.
Ideal for individual or group study, this inspiring sourcebook examines the modern Jewish man’s role as:

* Seeker of wisdom
* Matching helper in marriage
* Role model of Torah in word and deed
* Supporter and participant in Jewish communal life
* Mentor in passing a covenant of responsibility to the next generation.
