Download or read book Mussar Haskel written by and published by . This book was released on 2013-01-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yeshiva Toras Chaim is proud to share the fruits of a project undertaken by our students in 1995. Known as Mussar Haskel at its inception, dedicated students collaborated to document, publish, and distribute stimulating essays adapted from the ethical discourses - mussar shmuessen - given by our Rabbeim. These essays have been distributed both to our local South Florida community and internationally via email and the Internet. Coordinating a project of this magnitude over the course of many years with a constantly changing student roster is challenging and rare. We are privileged and fortunate that it is a reality in our Yeshiva. It is with this sentiment that we hope our continued emphasis on mussar imbues the highest ethical and character standards into our students, maximizing their potential as proud leaders of the next generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Torah, as both book and process, is the taproot that penetrates to the heart of Jewish meaning, understanding, and expression. Torah study is how we mine not just meaning from the text, but our awareness of God’s will,” writes Rabbi Daniel Pressman in the introduction to Torah Encounters: Genesis. This book series invites readers into the richness of the Torah, sharing context and information for each parasha, as well as commentary from generations of Biblical interpreters—historical and modern, and Rabbi Pressman’s own insights. The third in the five-volume Torah Encounters series, Torah Encounters: Leviticus makes the weekly Torah portion approachable and applicable. It is a wonderful resource for clergy, adult or high school Hebrew education, or personal study.

Download or read book Literary Hasidism written by Jonatan Meir and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-30 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Levi Rodkinson (1845–1904) was a journalist, author, and publisher whose literary projects spanned numerous countries and continents. Hero to some and scoundrel to others, Rodkinson was a polemical figure whose beliefs underwent many transformations over the course of his life, most significantly from Hasidism to combative Haskalah to eventually anticipating the neo-Romantic trends of the early twentieth century. Throughout his career, Rodkinson’s writing challenged the familiar genres of the literature of Hasidism and the Haskalah, shaping the religious realities of his readers and articulating a spiritual and community life among Jews, who took his ideas to heart in surprising ways. Today, Rodkinson is frequently referred to as a minor Hasidic author and publisher, a characterization based on the criticism of his opponents rather than on his writings. In Literary Hasidism, Meir draws upon those writings and their reception to present a completely different picture of this colorful and influential writer. Examining Rodkinson’s lifelong role as a catalyzing agent of different cultural phenomena, his diverse publishing activities, and his writings in their respective stages, Meir grants readers a provocative new vantage point from which to consider this divisive, enigmatic figure.
