ISBN: 0595477917 ISBN-13: 9780595477913 Publisher: iUniverse OUR PRICE: $12.56 Product Type: Paperback Published: November 2007 Annotation: In the timeless time of eternity, does God have a pre-history? What was God "before" (so to speak) God became GOD? Was there some terrible mistake involving culpability? If so, how did this God of pre-history handle His mistake? Availing himself of certain currents found in Scripture and in classical Rabbinic sources, the author makes the case that God is a being with moral fault. The author argues that how God handled His mistake was the process which allowed God to become the celebrated: THE GREAT THE MIGHTY THE TERRIBLE GOD "who remains steadfast to his covenant and loving bond," [Nehemiah 9: 32] And it all started with Noah: " But Noah found grace/favor in the eyes of Hashem." [Genesis 6: 8] |
