Book Description
Charity is central to the Jewish tradition. In this formative study, Gregg E. Gardner takes on this concept to examine the beginnings of Jewish thought on care for the poor. Focusing on writings of the earliest rabbis from the third century c.e., Gardner shows how the ancient rabbis saw the problem of poverty primarily as questions related to wealth—how it is gained and lost, how it distinguishes rich from poor, and how to convince people to part with their wealth. Contributing to our understanding of the history of religions, Wealth, Poverty, and Charity in Jewish Antiquity demonstrates that a focus on wealth can provide us with a fuller understanding of charity in Jewish thought and the larger world from which Judaism and Christianity emerged.

A Call to Stand Apart is for the twenty-first century. It deals with issues faced by contemporary young adults, drawing together a variety of previously published material of enduring relevance that has been transformed by modern language paraphrase.In this volume the most widely translated female author of all time offers inspired counsel on relationships, health, social justice, careers, the authority of Scripture, and salvation. Each chapter is prefaced by the testimony of a young adult who has been positively influenced by Ellen White and would like to pass that inspiration on to others.
