Publications

Books

Bashevkin believes in the study of Jewish thought as a mechanism to find spiritual fulfillment through Torah study and everyday activities. His published books in this genre include the Hebrew work Шаблон:Lang - B'Rogez Rahem Tizkor, Sin•a•gogue: Sin and Failure in Jewish Thoughts, and Top 5: Lists of Jewish Character and Characters. He authored the NCSY Haggadah entitled Just One. Many of Bashevkin's ideas draw extensively on the works of Zadok HaKohen Rabinowitz, a 19th-century Hasidic rabbi, especially the latter's thoughts on sin.

Bashevkin has written humorously about Orthodox Jewish culture, which he referred to as "airplane food and not home-baked." One humor column in Mishpacha magazine cataloged the idiosyncrasies and nuances of Jewish life. Bashevkin has written extensively on Jewish theology, publishing articles on sin, failure, and Jewish doctrine and tradition, including the application of Jewish scripture in the 21st-century digital age.
