Author Name
Sheldon Lewis (Author)
Sheldon Lewis' passion is reconciliation. He studied at the University of Chicago and was ordained at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America where he was a student of Prof. Abraham Joshua Heschel and a witness and active participant in the turbulent 60's. He served as a chaplain in the U.S. Army including a year in Vietnam where the experiences of war were seared into his consciousness. He served as a congregational rabbi at Kol Emeth in Palo Alto, CA for most of his rabbinic career. He was active in human rights causes and in peacemaking both on the local level and around the globe. He was especially engaged in the struggle for the liberation of Russian Jews. After 9/11, as a personal response, he began a search for peacemaking wisdom in Jewish sacred texts, an effort which yielded this volume.Read more about this authorRead less about this author

"What does Judaism have to say about humanity’s most pressing crisis? Rabbi Shelly Lewis has written an engaging, scholarly, and inspiring book about how Jewish tradition should inform our personal response to climate change: required reading for anyone who cares about the future of Creation. "(Prof.

Alon Tal, former chair of Knesset subcommittee on the Environment & Climate)"Our planet is on life support. These are grave times.

Yet I can still find solace in this newest book by Rabbi Sheldon Lewis. With a clear moral vision, Lewis conveys the many ways in which the Hebrew Bible celebrates the natural world as a sacred creation that we must cherish and work to preserve.

His words are glorious, his vision illuminating. Reading his book fills me with joy.

"(Dr. Adriane Leveen, Bible Scholar and Climate Activist).
