View of Religion

I felt very grateful he’d granted me the interview and said, "Rabbi, you’ve been very generous with your time. But you have fascinated me with an earlier point and I’d deeply appreciate your clarification. From what you were saying earlier, you have no term ‘religion’ in the Jewish vocabulary. Does this mean that you have the view that there is one religion — an individual’s relationship to God — and that religious groups and sects and schisms get in the way of that one religion?"

"There is no word for religion in Jewish tradition because every-thing is touched by religion. So, by talking about religion, you’re talking about everything. There’s no way to distinguish between religion and anything else."
