In this boxed set of the best-selling volumes The Jewish Book of Why and The Second Jewish Book of Why, Rabbi Alfred J Kolatch explores almost 1,000 questions about Judaism, including:
Why is a child born to a Jewish father not necessarily Jewish? Why is there objection to surrogate motherhood? Why do some seminaries ordain women? Why are boys circumcised? Why is a glass broken at a wedding ceremony? Why are pork and shrimp not kosher?
