Covenant and the Jewish Conversion Question reevaluates conversion and
Jewish identity through the lens of Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik’s
dual conception of the Covenants of Fate and Destiny. By studying an
array of key rabbinic texts through this lens, the book explores the
boundaries and interplay between these biblical covenants through
apostasy, holiness and the key elements relating to conversion law.
This understanding provides a relevant framing device to deal with
the conversion and Jewish identity crises faced in the State of Israel
and beyond.
