Questions Christians Ask the Rabbi

Rabbi Isaacs answers well over 200 questions Christians ask him on his popular website, taking a concise but accessible, family-friendly approach on such topics as Jesus, the synagogue, Jewish beliefs, the Bible, holidays (including the Sabbath, Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret, Simchai Torah, Hanakkuh, Purin, Passover and Shavuot) , life cycle events (circumcision, Pidyon HaBen, or the redemption of the firstborn, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, becoming Jewish, marriage, divorce, death and dying) , dietary laws, Jews and the community, medical ethics, Jews and Christians, Jewish denominations and Israel. He takes on the tough questions (the Jewish view of euthanasia, excommunication, the doctrine of original sin) along with those non-Jews may have about etiquette while attending religious ceremonies.
