Encyclopaedia of Judaism

Encyclopaedia of Judaism is now available online via the platform Brill Online. It includes more than 200 entries comprising more than 1,000,000 words with advanced search options and cross-searching with other reference works under Brill Online.

This edition offers an authoritative, comprehensive, and systematic presentation of the current state of scholarship on fundamental issues of Judaism, both past and present. While heavy emphasis is placed on the classical literature of Judaism and its history, this edition also includes principal entries on circumcision, genetic engineering, homosexuality, intermarriage in American Judaism, and other acutely contemporary issues. This invaluable reference work is written for an audience from all backgrounds, scholars and general readers alike.
