Praise for Intergalactic Judaism

"Here is a work that combines dazzling erudition in astronomy, theoretical physics and various other scientific disciplines, together with a fine knowledge of Jewish mysticism and biblical commentary, and – what is truly rare – an ability to combine them seamlessly into a view of the world that is both spiritual and humane."
–Chief Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks


"[Intergalactic Judaism] is fascinating from a scientific perspective and enlightening and inspiring from a Torah perspective."
–Rabbi Zev Leff


"This thought-provoking book demonstrates how modern physics can refresh our perception of Torah and our work in the world."
–Rabbi Dr. Akiva Tatz
