Sacred Secrets: The Sanctity of Sex in Jewish Law and Lore dispels the common misconception that Judaism, like Christianity, views sex as a mere procreative tool with taboos on other expressions of sensual pleasure.
By returning to primary source material, including the Torah and ancient and medieval rabbinic literature, Rabbi Gershon Winkler illustrates the often uninhibited and celebrative attitudes towards sexuality and sensual pleasure found in Jewish teachings. Unfortunately, Judaism''s healthy outlook on human desires and physical enjoyment has been nearly lost after centuries of subjection to host religions and cultures that have all but squelched the notion of sensuality. In this fascinating and often surprising volume, the myth of a ''Judeo-Christian'' approach to sex is shattered.
