Consisting of conversations between renowned Jewish thinker and
teacher Rabbi Irving (Yitz) Greenberg and Shalom Freedman, this
book presents the major themes of Rabbi Greenberg's work and
thought and addresses the most challenging questions facing Jewish
people today.
Documenting the unique and unforgettable contribution he made to
the Jewish people, this biography of Chief Rabbi Brigadier-General
Shlomo Goren details the life and legacy of the first chief rabbi
of the Israeli army. From his childhood smuggling of arms for the
Haganah to serving as a sniper in the War of Independence, and from
the dangerous task of retrieving bodies from the field of battle
behind enemy lines to the role he played in the recapturing of the
Old City, the Western Wall, and the Temple Mount during the Six-Day
War, the book emphasizes Goren's importance to the physical defense
of Israel. Beyond that, however, it also highlights his pioneering
work in Jewish law and his monumental scholarship on the Jerusalem
Talmud and a number of aspects of Jewish life, revealing another
facet of a man who embodied the ancient ideal of being both a great
Jewish scholar and a remarkable soldier in the service of God and
the Jewish people.
This work of small poems consists in speculations on ultimate human
possibilities.
