Produktbeschreibung
The Jews journey from Mount Sinai to the Holy Land was filled with promise, but also fraught with hurdles. How would they deal with the threat of hostile nations, the tremors of internecine divisions, the challenge of forging a relationship with God once the unique conditions of Sinai were left behind? Plumbing the depths of Jewish sources, Rabbi Ari Kahn provides fascinating answers to age-old questions, infusing the parashah with fresh significance. Through provoking questions and intriguing insights, Rabbi Kahn continually inspires us to seek the Godly. Spies, Subversives and Other Scoundrels is the fourth in a five-volume work on the weekly Torah portion, published jointly by Gefen Publishing House and the OU.
Autorenporträt
Rabbi Ari Kahn received his rabbinic ordination from Yeshiva University's Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, where he studied under Rabbi Yosef Dov Soloveitchik. He is the director of Foreign Student Programs and senior lecturer in Judaic studies at Bar-Ilan University in Israel. He is a renowned speaker, and has lectured worldwide. Having authored over two hundred articles on the weekly parashah and holidays with a readership in excess of ten thousand, Rabbi Kahn is also the author of Explorations, an in-depth analysis of the weekly Torah reading, and Emanations, an in-depth analysis of the Jewish holidays. Drawing upon the vast reservoir of rabbinic literature - from Talmud to Midrash, from the Zohar to the Hassidic masters - Rabbi Kahn combines the mystical explorations of kabbalah and Hassidut with a highly intellectual and broad-minded approach to Torah study. He applies psychology, literature and Jewish history to the understanding of esoteric midrashim and the Zohar.
