Giving Away Some Jewish Books
I have some books that I'd like to find new homes for... Let me know if you are interested in any of these books. I'm giving them away for free if you can pick them up at my house in West Mt. Airy, Philly.
Leave a comment letting me (and other readers) know which one(s) you want and I'll set it aside for you. It'll be on my front porch with your name on it. But let me know about when you think you can pick it up.

I'd be interested in "illness and Health..." (of course), the Sfas Emes on the Hagaddah, and the two volume Pines translation of the Guide to the Perplexed. I can come by any time beginning now.
Thanks, Bill
Shai, I would be interested in the Haggadah with comments from Sfas Emes & Maimonides, Guide for the Perplexed. Please let me know how I can pick these up from you.
Thanks, Chag Sameach, Barb Pearson
Hey - I'd love the intermarriage handbook and the three Jewish Philosophers!
Also, are any of these books required for RRC courses?????

Shai,
If nobody else wants them, I would be interested in Cohen's, The Friars and the Jews,
the Contemporary Jewish Religious Thought, Michael Meyer's Origins of the Modern Jew,
and Cecil Roth's Dona Gracia.
Many thanks,
David Stern

Hello Shai, Chag Sameach! Thank you for offering to share your rabbinic library with us. Like Kelilah I am still in school! I'm interested in the Women & Jewish Law book, Clifford's book on 2nd Isaiah and Habits of the Heart, if they're not already spoken for. Thanks again for your generosity -
Bvracha, Leslie
