Questions You Thought You Couldn’t Ask

Based on the foundational narratives of the Chumash, this volume explores the deep questions on the Torah that many Jewish teenagers and young adults feel are too “big” to ask. What they don’t realize is that their difficulties—the ones they are scared to admit out loud—are the same ones that bothered the great Torah scholars who came before them.

Drawing on authentic and authoritative sources, from the Rishonim and Acharonim to modern scholarship, Questions You Thought You Couldn’t Ask addresses these concerns in a contemporary, readable, and personable style. A valuable resource for teens and parents of teens—these thought-provoking questions and answers are sure to spark an animated conversation around the Shabbos table.

Rabbi Ahron Lopiansky, Rosh Yeshiva, Yeshiva of Greater Washington-Tiferes Gedaliah

“An educator who makes Judaism both make sense and matter…The Torah in this book reflects this passion and mission.”

Rabbi Aaron Frank, Principal, Ramaz
