Meaning of Life According to Judaism - A systematic and concise exploration of the central questions of life, creation, and purpose through the lens of Torah

This concise book will take you on a journey. A journey of discovery and inquiry that helps address some of the most fundamental and central questions any Jew must ask.

Why did God bother to create anything at all? Why does God command us to do anything at all? Why does He care? If God doesn’t want me to sin, why doesn’t He just remove my temptation to sin? Why would God dictate a specific path to righteousness? Why not let humans use their intellect to reason and discover righteous behavior? Why is there a chosen people at all? If we are God’s Chosen People, why do we suffer far more than any other nation and experience constant hatred by other nations? Does the Torah answer these questions, and if so — where?

By reading this book your understanding of the foundation of creation and the meaning of life will be forever transformed.
