Opis
Trees, Earth, and Torah is the first comprehensive collection of Jewish resources for observing the increasingly popular late winter holiday of Tu B'Shvat, the Jewish "New Year of Trees.". "Shaped in the sixteenth century by the Jewish mystics of Sefat, this holiday celebrates natural and supernatural renewal, and includes a special seder modeled after the Passover seder.. "This anthology draws from biblical, rabbinical, medieval, and modern sources - from art, music, recipes, and crafts, as well as fiction, poetry, and essays - about the significance and historical development of the holiday, and includes mystical writings along with Zionist and Eco-Jewish pieces.
