Throughout the generations, Jews have been inspired and guided by the tales of gedolim, our great masters of piety and wisdom. Simcha Raz's "Tales of the Righteous", newly translated by Rabbi Dov Peretz Elkins, brings the lives of these masters to life. Raz's pithy vignettes and awe-inspiring tales show that together with their brilliance in Torah study, these rabbis were also paragons of sensitive, ethical behaviour.
This collection features over a thousand impactful aphorisms from Hasidic teachings that have resonated with Jewish communities for centuries. Each saying intricately weaves traditional Jewish wisdom with contemporary psychological and spiritual insights, reflecting the enduring relevance of Hasidic thought. The volume serves as both a spiritual guide and a source of inspiration, highlighting the profound connection between historical teachings and modern life.
