Mots simples

Adin Steinsaltz

Les mots simples de la vie quotidienne, qui reviennent sans cesse dans nos conversations, sont autant d’interstices pour cerner ce qui se passe au ciel et sur terre, derrière notre dos et au-delà de la mort.

L’auteur prospecte la sagesse biblique, talmudique, kabbalistique et philosophique qui s’est sédimentée dans ces mots, tels la nature, le bien, la foi, le sexe, l’amour… Dieu.
Il dessine davantage les limites de l’interrogation religieuse qu’il ne prêche une religion.

The Saying of Matanel

Whoever destroys a soul, it is considered as if he destroyed an entire world. And whoever saves a life, it is considered as if he saved an entire world.

Jerusalem Talmud, Sanhedrin 4:1 (22a)
