Product Description
Synopsis
This book teaches how Jesus actually may have meditated and recreates step-by-step examples the reader can follow. This 'original' meditation grew from the common ground of all three religions springing from the Middle East: Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. The key, says Neil Douglas-Klotz, is in interpreting Jesus from the standpoint of his own native language, Aramaic. On the basis of such translations, Neil links Jesus' meditative practice to his way of prayer.

—Joan Borysenko, Ph.D., author of Seven Paths to God and Inner Peace for Busy Women
Deeply moving, compelling, and radiant with hope, this book is a living
prayer that can contribute to personal and interreligious transformation.
The Genesis Meditations tells an enthralling story and contains dozens of gorgeous meditations for remembering and returning to our original mystical experience with God.
—Mary Ford-Grabowsky, author of Sacred Voices and Woman Prayers
At a time when superficial religious beliefs separate us, Neil
Douglas-Klotz’s in-depth work into these same beliefs brings us together.

First, Dr. Douglas-Klotz entices us into a fascinating intellectual journey.
Then he guides us into a deeper spiritual realm of our own, showing us how we could meditate on the Creation in our own language. By the time we finish his book, we are ready and able to join body, heart, mind, and spirit into a healing wholeness—indeed, the wholeness of Creation.
—Rabbi Arthur Waskow, author of Godwrestling—Round 2

Genesis Meditations: A Shared Practice of Peace for Christians, Jews, and Muslims by Neil Douglas Klotz, 4 Aug 2008
By Gloria J. Bogert - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Genesis Meditations: A Shared Practice of Peace for Christians, Jews and Muslims (Hardcover)
This is an awesome book. It is well-written, easy to read and helps to understand how the Bible and other sacred scripture came to be. This book is scholarly and based on much research. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in what Jesus and the Hebrew scriptures REALLY have to say.
