The Candle of God: Discourses on Chasidic Thought

Meer over het boek

In The Candle of God, Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz takes readers on a journey of the soul through the teachings of Chasidic leaders, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi, founder of the Chabad movement, and his grandson, Rabbi Menachem Mendel. With characteristic ease and lucidity, he explains profound ideas that have become obscured over time: the hidden aspects of Shabbat, the essence of the soul in Torah, the inner meanings of sanctity and restraint. The Candle of God provides a unique bridge between ancient Jewish wisdom and the modern world.
