I would recommend essays by Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan:
- If you were God : immortality and the soul : a world of love : three works [New York, N.Y. : NCSY/Orthodox Union, c1983] - Immortality, resurrection and the age of the universe : a kabbalistic view [Hoboken, N.J. : Ktav Pub. in association with Orthodox Jewish Scientists, 1993] Rabbi Jeremy Meyerowitz Public Services Librarian Jewish Theological Seminary 3080 Broadway New York, NY 10027-4649 212-678-8963 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> I've been asked to recommend a good book on the Jewish belief in the soul. The request was from a mentally sharp older man on hospice, so I'm looking for something that's not highly academic, but is intelligent, readable but doesn't talk down. He is not Orthodox. I'd really appreciate ideas!
