The Encyclopaedia of Judaism provides a full and reliable account of Judaism, beginning in ancient Israelite times and extending to our own day. These five volumes encompass much of what we know about Judaism, the religion, its diverse history, literature, beliefs past and present, observances and practices, and place in the context of society and culture. All principal topics required for the systematic description of Judaism as a religion—its world view, way of life, theory of the social entity constituted by the faithful—are addressed here.
The Encyclopaedia of Judaism was selected as CHOICE's 'Outstanding Academic Title for 2000' and chosen by the American Library Association as 'Outstanding Reference Source 2001.'
The Logos edition of Encyclopaedia of Judaism includes all five published volumes of this award-winning overview of Judaism—comprising nearly 2,500 pages and more than 1,500 entries!
