Description
An in-depth study of chanting Torah among contemporary Jews in the United States, 'Singing God's Words' presents a reconceptualization of spiritual experience. Jeffrey A. Summit details the transforming effect that digital technology, feminism, and a pursuit of self-fulfillment in the community has had on congregants and clergy as they teach, learn, and understand what it means to stand at the epicentre of Jewish worship and 'read Torah.'
