Reply To: Going off the Derech

I agree with interjection. Aish is a very good place to start. I remember that Rabbi Yitzchak Berkowitz used to offer many “What is…” lectures on many different topics. He would explain everything from the bottom up in a clear and understandable way. Also, if you go to their website, you can go to “Ask the Rabbi”. In fact, many Jewish websites offer this option as an anonymous way to ask questions. But your first question should be, where you can go to ask all of your questions! I’m sure they can help.

Rabbi Kellerman’s books are very good. There is also a book entitled, “On Judaism” by Rabbi Emanuel Feldman which is about a secular Jew trying to find out about his heritage. He meets with a Rabbi, and asks a lot of questions. I’m not sure if it’s too basic for you, but you may have some of his same questions. It’s worthwhile to check it out.
