This book was released on 2008-03-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a history, an indictment, a lament, and an appeal, focusing on the messianic trend in Lubavitch hasidism. It records the shattering of one of Judaism's core beliefs and the remarkable equanimity with which the standard-bearers of Orthodoxy have allowed it to happen. This is a development of striking importance for the history of religions, and it is an earthquake in the history of Judaism. David Berger describes the unfolding of this historic phenomenon and proposes a strategy to contain it.

Book excerpt: Rabbi Yitzchok Dovid Groner was the most important driving force in strengthening Judaism in Australia over the past half century. He dedicated himself to his life's work in the Australian Jewish community, without leaving room for his own needs; he was a Torah scholar to whom other rabbis brought their most difficult questions; he was an orator, whose sincerity and passion could hold people spellbound; and he was a teacher. When attempting to describe Rabbi Groner, the first thing almost everyone says is, 'He was larger than life.' At the age of thirty-three, he was sent by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Menachem Mendel Schneerson, from his native New York to Melbourne for 'three to five' years and stayed his entire life! He found Jewish Melbourne a relative backwater, home to an old, British-oriented community and a refuge for traumatised Holocaust survivors. He left it vibrant and growing, full of Jewish life with a reputation throughout the Jewish world that belies its small Jewish population and its distance from the major centres of Judaism and Chassidism. It could well be argued that Rabbi Groner had more to do with the strength of Judaism in Australia than any other individual. He built a community that, almost a decade and a half after his passing, is still fiercely loyal to his memory, far beyond the Chabad-Lubavitch Chassidim subgroup he officially served.Like all of us, Rabbi Groner had conflicts, faults and idiosyncrasies. He seemed to radiate confidence, but inwardly he could be filled with self-doubt. Rabbi Groner never tried to hide his own faults. That was one of the things that endeared him to so many and made him approachable to people who would never otherwise have spoken to a rabbi about their lives and their problems. There are countless memoirs of great Jewish rabbis. Virtually all of them are filled exclusively with stories of their good qualities and deeds. This biography offers a comprehensive and honest insight into the achievements and failures of a great rabbi and a genuine human being.

Download or read book Rebbe written by Joseph Telushkin and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the greatest religious biographies ever written.” – Dennis Prager In this enlightening biography, Joseph Telushkin offers a captivating portrait of the late Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, a towering figure who saw beyond conventional boundaries to turn his movement, Chabad-Lubavitch, into one of the most dynamic and widespread organizations ever seen in the Jewish world. At once an incisive work of history and a compendium of Rabbi Schneerson's teachings, Rebbe is the definitive guide to understanding one of the most vital, intriguing figures of the last centuries. From his modest headquarters in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, the Rebbe advised some of the world's greatest leaders and shaped matters of state and society. Statesmen and artists as diverse as Ronald Reagan, Robert F. Kennedy, Yitzchak Rabin, Menachem Begin, Elie Wiesel, and Bob Dylan span the spectrum of those who sought his counsel. Rebbe explores Schneerson's overarching philosophies against the backdrop of treacherous history, revealing his clandestine operations to rescue and sustain Jews in the Soviet Union, and his critical role in the expansion of the food stamp program throughout the United States. More broadly, it examines how he became in effect an ambassador for Jews globally, and how he came to be viewed by many as not only a spiritual archetype but a savior. Telushkin also delves deep into the more controversial aspects of the Rebbe's leadership, analyzing his views on modern science and territorial compromise in Israel, and how in the last years of his life, many of his followers believed that he would soon be revealed as the Messiah, a source of contention until this day.
