Rabbi Goldstein has inspired countless Jews through rigorous and brilliant teaching and through her visionary leadership of congregations in Toronto, Ontario, Canton, Massachusetts, and Guatemala City, Guatemala. She has renewed the tradition through the fresh perspective of the feminist lens and through her distinctive insight and passion. It is customary in the academic world to honor an esteemed scholar with the publication of a festschrift, a collection of writings by colleagues and students. More than a minyan of women rabbis and thinkers have honored Rabbi Elyse Goldstein by creating this festschrift. They include theologians and chaplains, congregational rabbis, and ritual innovators. They represent the very earliest pioneering women in the rabbinate in North America and Israel, courageous pathfinders in mid-career, and the next generation of spiritual leaders in Judaism. In this book, the contributors have crafted innovative interpretations of biblical texts, personal reflections on Hebrew words and letters, novel approaches to prayers and holidays, and fresh ways of seeing the body and the stages of life. Truly, their radiant words and images represent women's Torah for our time.
