To Be a Jew Today 2024
To Be a Jew Today is a 2024 book written by American legal scholar Noah Feldman, the Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. The book tells about contemporary Jewish identity through three parts that examine Jewish views of God, connections to the State of Israel, and ideas about Jewish peoplehood. Feldman does not use typical religious groupings but instead sorts Jewish beliefs into four types he calls Traditional, Progressive, Evolutionist, and Godless. He claims that wrestling with tradition and faith is a key part of Jewish life across all these categories. The book reached the New York Times bestseller list.
