Reseña del libro "The Sacred Earth: Jewish Perspectives on Our Planet"
The Torah begins by setting forth the heavens and the Earth as God's creation, impelling humanity to steward our planet for its own sake and for its ability tonurture our lives. Yet the human-Divine-environment relationship seems to be inperpetual crisis. The Sacred Earth is a contemporary Jewish response to the loomingthreat of climate change, the widespread desire for experiential spirituality rootedin nature, and the continually changing relationship between humanity, nature, technology, and the Divine. The leading thinkers in this collection refl ect onhuman vulnerability in the face of forces of nature, examine conceptions of ourplace in cosmology, and grapple with environmental destruction. Ultimately, with hope, they creatively explore ways to redeem this sacred Earth.
