  • Produktbild: The Passionate Torah
  • Acknowledgments Introduction / Danya Ruttenberg I-It: Challenges 1. Sotah: Rabbinic Pornography? / Sarra Lev; "The text is often voyeuristic, and can sometimes even be classified as pornographic."; 2. Prostitution: Not a Job for a Nice Jewish Girl / Judith R. Baskin; "These traditions often display a romanticized view of prostitutes--as long as they are not Jews."; 3. Divorcing Ba'al - An Expose of the Sex of Ownership in Jewish Marriage / Bonna Haberman; "The intimate partnership of spouses is overlaid with the metaphoric, often tortured spousal relationship of the Jewish People with God. "; 4. The Sage and the Other Woman / Aryeh Cohen; "What happens when a scholar, one who spends nights as well as days in the study of Torah, actually has sex with a flesh and blood woman? The answer, to jump to the end, is that Elijah has to come in to clean up the mess."; 5. Intermarriage, Gender and Nation in the Hebrew Bible / Esther Fuchs; "An accurate theory of the foreign woman ought to take account of her doubled representation as attractive and fearsome ... desirable and forbidden."; 6. Good Sex: A Jewish Feminist Perspective / Malka Landau; "When we think of "Good sex" we think of sex that feels good and gives pleasure... How can we make sex holy as feminist Jews while grappling with the gender injustices that emerge through the male-centred textual tradition? " I-Thou: Relationships 7. The Erotics of Sexual Segregation / Naomi Seideman; "The Old City apartment ... [was] not devoid of eroticism ...On the contrary, [it] provided new avenues for... interplay between the religious and the erotic, precisely through the mechanism of sexual segregation."; 8. Reclaiming Nidah and Mikve through Ideological and Practical Reinterpretation / Haviva Ner-David; "It is not enough to promote a feminist reinterpretation of "Family Purity" while continuing to practice rituals that perpetuate the message that a woman who is t'meah [ritually impure] from her uterine flow is spiritually inferior, dirty, or dangerous."; 9. The Goy of Sex: A Short Historical Tour of Relations between Jews and Non-Jews / Wendy Love Anderson; "How can we explain the persistent and widespread incidence of Jewish-Gentile sex in the face of nearly universal condemnation?"; 10. A Jewish Perspective on Birth Control and Procreation / Elliot Dorff; "Thus the Jewish tradition understands sex to have two purposes, procreation and providing sexual satisfaction for both members of a couple. We shall probe what this means in modern times ... [when] social realities and medical technologies are radically different."; 11. Not Like a Virgin: Talking About Non-Marital Sex / Sara Meirowitz; "What is this story that we tell ourselves about sex in the unmarried world?"; 12. Reconsidering Solitary Sex from a Jewish Perspective / Rebecca Alpert; "Given contemporary perspectives however, rather than seeing masturbation as a means to harmful ends, we can find in this activity a means to achieve some valuable goals." We-Thou: Visions 13. "Created By the Hand of Heaven": Sex, Love and the Androgynos / Elliot Kukla; "Not only is a person who is neither male nor female allowed to be a fully sexual being worthy of companionship in Jewish sacred texts, the androgynos is presumed to be one."; 14. Towards a New Tzniut / Danya Ruttenberg; "How can we begin to talk about women's bodies and clothing, as well as the notion of tzniut (modesty), in a way that emphasizes the importance of our erotic, integrated, Divinely connected selves rather than focusing on desiccated individual body parts?"; 15. Queer Theology / Jay Michaelson; "Homosexuality presents a deeper theological question than how we read two verses of the Torah."; 16. Heruta's Ruse: What We Mean When We Talk about Desire / Gail Labovitz; "Through her disguise, Heruta may be understood to challenge ... rabbis' fears about their own susceptibility to sexual temptation and forbidden acts."; 17. Love the One You're With / Laura Levitt; "What might it mean now after the explosion of gay and lesbian marriages for us to rethink the erotic as just that, radical mutuality not tied to either monogamous marriage or long-term partnership?"; 18. Eden for Grown-ups: Toward a New Ethic of Earth, of Sex, and of Creation / Arthur Waskow; "If there is a plot, a story, to the Song [of Songs], it is about lovers who seek each other and who passionately celebrate each other's bodies, but who vanish from each other just when they are about to join... The Song offers us an Eden." Glossary; About the Contributors; Index
