The Breath of Life : Torah, Intelligent Design and Evolution, Hardback Book

The Breath of Life : Torah, Intelligent Design and Evolution Hardback

Part of the Torah and Science series

Hardback

Description

The theory of evolution is almost uncontested in the scientific world, even though it remains incomplete. Until now, the discrepancy between evolution and the account of creation in the Torah has been tackled in various ways by rabbinical authorities. However, the options currently available to believers cannot do justice both to the authenticity of Torah and the empirical findings of science. The feeling that abounds is that you can never have one without jeopardizing the other.

In The Breath of Life, Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh offers a new perspective that unifies the two realms. He contemplates key concepts in the theory of evolution—such as purpose, intelligent design, the origin of life, the riddle of sexual reproduction and the common ancestor of all living creatures—redirecting our perception to view them through the prism of Torah and Kabbalah.

Doing so reorients the entire theory of evolution and elevates the ideas to their origin in holiness. Extracting the essence of any scientific theory allows it to be born again, in sanctity. Rabbi Ginsburgh's unique teaching style comes to the fore once again in this book, which takes us another step closer to unifying Torah and science. Ultimately, their union will usher in the complete redemption.
