The Rumspringa Kallah [Paperback]

Hasidic Jews and the Amish wear similar clothes. The men grow long beards, the women dress modestly, and both groups speak a dialect of old German. But the Amish are devout Christians while Hasidim are devout Jews. An unbridgeable gap?

The Rumspringa Kallah (Bride) is the story of a Hasidic boy who is unable to find a wife within his own community because of a thorny problem with his status in Jewish law. Undaunted, he seeks a solution among the Amish. He will try to find a good Amish girl to be his soulmate - with one caveat. In order to marry him, she must convert to Judaism.

The road is long and full of twists, but ultimately his gambit works beyond his wildest dreams. The curse on his head in the Hasidic Jewish community turns into great blessing.

This emotionally-charged story takes an intriguing look into both the human heart and the mysterious workings of Divine Providence. As in Sender Zeyv's other novels, The Rumspringa Kallah contains a wealth of knowledge: Jewish marriage and divorce, Hasidic and Amish customs and, most notably, scholarly challenges to Christian theology.
