Whether it’s for a better understanding of Torah, a better understanding of you, a better understanding of life, or simply a nice idea to say over, to quote a press review of Rabbi Fine’s last book, "this book should be read and re-read.” As Rav Tzvi Kushelevsky writes (in his letter of approbation to the book), "it succeeds in clarifying some of the profound aspects of the Torah."Through a variety of styles and topics, Rabbi Daniel Fine brings out the depth and relevance of Torah Judaism via traveling through the weekly parashah and festivals. Intended to cater for everyone, the three sections - the weekly parashah, festivals, and simchas - are replete with both in-depth essays and short insights which tackle many fundamental issues ( as well as some interesting but not-so-central issues) ranging from emunah to communal responsibility, from self-deception to prayer, from happiness to desire, from speech to prophecy, miracles and redemption, to name but a few. The issues are pinpointed, discussed, sourced and translated into practical lessons for life.
