Synopsis
"Judaism Without Tribalism is a blessing, a much-needed challenge, and a deep well of wisdom and sanity." --Natalie Goldberg"Judaism Without Tribalism is is the best book I ever read. I say that every time Rabbi Rami writes a new book- and it's absolutely true. He is a master teacher full of love, wisdom and a reverent irreverence that illuminates both mind and heart." --Dr. Joan Borysenko
This book investigates Judaism at its best--and sanest. It strips away outdated and harmful beliefs that have accrued over the centuries and returns to the essential truths that are too-often ignored in favor of tradition, tribal identity, or the claims of the powerful.
The result is a vibrant Judaism for the 21st century and beyond--a Judaism that draws deeply from history and scripture yet addresses the unmet needs of the present and the future. It is a Judaism that is open and accessible to everyone.
Judaism without tribalism is a call to be a light unto the nations, and a blessing to all the people of the earth. It is a Judaism free from legalism and tribalism--a Judaism that refuses to serve patriarchy and power.
Written by one of today's most respected--and most unconventional--Jewish thinkers, Judaism Without Tribalism is a manifesto, an invitation to completeness, and a call for inner and outer spiritual revolution. It is also a deeply practical guide to living authentically, breath by breath and day by day.

Synopsis
"Easy to read, yet deep and challenging in its wisdom, this
book will become a bible for many who have rejected
various Jewish orthodoxies but still know that there is a depth
of wisdom in Judaism that they do not want to discard."
-Rabbi Michael Lerner, author of
Jewish Renewal and editor of Tikkun

Synopsis
- Author is a well-established authority on Judaism. He is a Rabbi, a recognized thought leader, and author of 36 previous books. In 2020, Rami received the Huston Smith Award for Excellence in Inter-Spiritual Education. He is also the recipient of the Reb Zalman Shachter-Shalomi Legacy Award; a two-time winner of the Best Jewish Writing award; and a six-time winner of Spirituality & Practice's award for best spiritual nonfiction.
- This is a book with broad appeal, particularly to those Jews now returning to the faith after the exploration of other religions and looking for a Judaism that is more inclusive. This book will also appeal to non-Jews looking for a way to relate to an ancient tradition that does not overtly exclude them. It will also appeal to practicing Jews who are dissatisfied with the limitations of 21st century Judaism, questioning Jews who wonder how Judaism can become more meaningful and non-practicing Jews who have been turned off by much of what contemporary Judaism has to offer.
- JWT is primarily a spiritual book, accessible to anyone. It is not political in nature, nor is it dogmatic. Its goal is to help the reader become their true self.
- Spirituality & Health Magazine: Rami hosts a weekly column, Roadside Assistance for the Spiritual Traveler, a weekly podcast, Essential Conversations with Rabbi Rami, in addition to serving as a contributing editor.
