In order to do this, I will discuss three groups of literature: Rabbinic midrash, the Hebrew Crusade chronicles, and Yiddish religious materials from the pre-modern period.

The Moon, stars, and planets all have a story to tell. Journey through the autumn sky as we explore the Universe as revealed by telescopes, spacecraft, and rovers.
