Transnature's God : Studies in Mordecai M. Kaplan's Theology

Transnature's God, a monumental study by Professor Meir Ben-Horin (1918-1988), is largely an intellectual history of the central ideas of Rabbi Mordecai Kaplan. In the words of editor Ethan Merlin, ?Kaplan stood at the crossroads of ancient and modern traditions. His novel ideas about God and Judaism reflect his particular historical and cultural moment. In this book, Ben-Horin explains those ideas while documenting their relation to larger intellectual currents.' Dr. Ben-Horin devoted the 1970s through 1987, researching, analyzing, writing, and enhancing this work. Just as he was editing his final manuscript, Dr. Ben-Horin died in January 1988. The culmination of decades of Jewish scholarship, Dr. Ben-Horin's manuscript has been rediscovered, re-edited and is now published. This is ?must reading? for scholars and students of Judaism.Ben-Horin, Meir is the author of 'Transnature's God : Studies in Mordecai M. Kaplan's Theology', published 2004 under ISBN 9780976120803 and ISBN 0976120801.
