Israel and Humanity: Study on the Problem of Universal Religion and its Solution

This is the complete work of "Israel and Humanity", volumes 1, 2 & 3 in a single book in smaller print. The volumes may be purchased separately.The message of Rabbi Eliyahu Benamozegh’s major work, "Israel and Humanity", needs more than ever to be read and in its entirety. Eliyahu Benamozegh (1822-1900) was the rabbi of Livorno in Italy; he studied major religions as well as mysticism and philosophy with the aim of rectifying the fragmentation and alienation in society. According to him, brotherhood can be accomplished by finding common principles among different systems of thought, all of which, according to Rabbi Benamozegh, are derived from divine precepts. Nowadays, this approach retains all its relevance, as it was the case in its time which corresponds to the years before the two world wars. "AlSadiqin Press" thus presents the original and unabridged version of "Israel and Humanity. So that readers can take cognizance of Rabbi Benamozegh's broad, inclusive vision and his many approaches to the role of the Jewish people vis-à-vis the nations of the world. This will allow the readership not to be embarrassed by the slightest editorial omission. It will also serve as a useful tool to build a framework for a just society, as Rabbi Benamozegh envisioned.
