It has been difficult for non-Jewish people to find such teachings until now. This groundbreaking book is a collection of essays on the weekly Torah portions and the holidays from twelve leading rabbis of Israel, written specifically to address the interests of a Christian audience. This is the world s first book of Torah written by Orthodox rabbis especially (but not exclusively) with pro-Israel Christians in mind!  These Orthodox rabbis are enabling the fulfillment of the words of Zechariah "In those days it will happen that ten men, of all the [different] languages of the nations, will take hold, they will take hold of the corner of the garment of a Jewish man, saying, Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you!"

An American Jew finds himself out of time and place growing up in a Jewish "ghetto" in Newark, where assimilation was the unspoken though expected goal. The young Larkey reacts with confusion and soul-searching as he strives for that seemingly ideal American dream. His ultimate rejection of the norm results in an astonishing change of direction and location, which the older Larkey describes in vivid detail as he recalls his journey and survival in a new and different society.
