The Judaism of Sinai and the Judaism of Auschwitz are merg­ing, result­ing in new visions of Judaism that are only begin­ning to take shape. Each of the chap­ters of this book out­lines an aspect of this work in progress, this ​“Torah of Auschwitz,” as we see how the ways of Sinai are being recast, the old wells redug, as Judaism is now being inter­pret­ed anew through the prism of this epochal event. Any new expres­sion of Judaism to emerge must place the Holo­caust expe­ri­ence direct­ly at its core or it will not be authen­tic. But just as it can­not ignore the abyss, any mod­ern expres­sion of Judaism must also affirm joy, beau­ty, and moral ground­ing or it will not sur­vive. Jew­ish revi­tal­iza­tion will be assured when grand­chil­dren of sur­vivors and oth­ers of their gen­er­a­tion can begin to take the dark­ness of the Shoah and turn it into song, absorb­ing the absur­di­ty of a silent God while lov­ing life nonetheless.
