Zeek’s flagship publication is Zeek: A Journal of Jewish Thought and Culture.  This award-winning journal is uncompromising in its independence, intelligence, and expansive definition of Jewish cultural and spiritual life. Zeek’s contributors range from well-known rabbis and professors to emerging artists, musicians, and poets. We value intelligence, independence, courage, and thoughtfulness, and believe that an articulate Jewish sensibility is one that speaks from its place of particularity in a much wider conversation.
