"He will be silent in His love." -- Zephaniah 3:17. This book is a series of sermonic essays on international relations through the lens of Jewish religious literature and philosophy. They suggest the possibility of thinking about international relations with attention to the solitary individual in his or her microcosm. Hence, they open the possibility of studying international relations not through the lens of security, but through the lens of empathy. The chapters include the following subject matter treated as serious themes: asylum, sport, medicine, music, love and abuse.
