Transforming Identity: The Ritual Transition from Gentile to Jew - Structure and Meaning - The Robert and Arlene Kogod Library of Judaic Studies
Avi Sagi
Of all Judaic rituals, that of giyyur is arguably the most radical: it turns a Gentile into a Jew - once and for all and irrevocably. This title focuses upon a reading of primary halakhic texts from Talmudic times onwards as key to the explication of meaning within the Judaic tradition.
