Perfect goodness and the God of the Jews: a contemporary Jewish theology

Abstract

reflections upon. The provocative title of the book AWoman Called Moses is but a short part of one of those chapters in which Attias reflects on Moses’ complaint in Numbers 11 that he did not birth the people and should hardly be asked by God to suckle them like a child. Arguably it does the book an injustice and may lose it to some of the audience who would most appreciate it. The original French title Moïse fragile does a much better job of capturing the book’s character.
