The Importance of Memory
Update: 2024-10-10
Description
A great many Jewish holidays and practices, in their earliest understanding, reflect the great innovation of Israelite religion. The Bible emphasized historical events in contrast to nature. Other ancient Near Eastern religions stressed the latter. As Rabbi Abra-ham Joshua Heschel noted, in the Jewish tradition, faith is memory. The observances of Jewish holidays and various Jewish practices articulate theological ideas reflective of collective Jewish memory.
