First sentence: Among writers speaking from within the Jewish tradition (which is also my tradition) in recent years, few, if any, have expressed more powerfully than Jonathan Sacks, in his book The Dignity of Difference, the need for a "covenantal relation," a relation of love and responsibility, between persons and persons and between persons and God.
