Jewish Science, Divine Healing in Judaism with Special Reference to the Jewish Scriptures and Prayer Book

More about the book

Jewish Science: Divine Healing in Judaism presents the fundamental teachings of Rabbi Alfred G. Moses. Jewish Science is a Judaic spiritual movement comparable with the New Thought Movement. It is an interpretation of Jewish philosophy that was originally conceived by Moses in response to the growing influence of Christian Science and New Thought. In Jewish Science Moses shows that the precepts of Christian Science and other New Thought denominations are drawn largely from the Hebrew scriptures. "Jewish Science views God as an Energy or Force penetrating the reality of the universe. God is the source of all Reality and not separate from but part of the world and Right thinking has a healing effect". Alfred Geiger Moses was the rabbi of the American Reform Congregation of the Gates of Heaven and Society for the Needy from 1901 to 1940. His interest in divine healing stemmed from the physical and mental problems from which he long suffered.
