Ben Torah for Life by Aaron Lopiansky Pdf

Those who devote their early adult years to full-time Torah learning know they are living in a different reality. Their world is pure and idealistic, and their goals are spiritual. Their success is measured in the thrill of a new insight and the glimpses of Hashem's wisdom that only the Talmud can reveal. For some, the early years are only the beginning of a life-long ascent in the world of Torah. For most, however, a return trip to the material world is inevitable. This is one of the most difficult transitions a Ben Torah ever will make. It calls his entire identity and purpose into question. And yet little time is devoted to preparing for this transition in the years during which all energy is focused on Torah learning. Some get lost, and some feel misled; most are confused about how to proceed with their self-esteem and values intact. Rabbi Aaron Lopiansky has written a book that will serve as a guiding light to the many young men who are making this transition.--Back cover.

Seed of Redemption by Aaron Lopiansky Pdf

Seed of Redemption presents a riveting, overarching commentary through which the reader can begin to appreciate the extraordinary depth and scope of this small Megillah, which touches on the very foundations of humanity and Klal Yisroel. This deep and greatly inspiring sefer is sweeping in scope, and yet it takes note of every detail; it is built almost entirely on Chazal and flows seamlessly with the text of the Megillah. Rabbi Aaron Lopiansky, author of Ben Torah for Life and Golden Apples, as well as other works in both English and Hebrew, has rendered this sefer as an English adaptation of the sefer Nachlas Yosef. It preserves the original insights while striving for the same readability in English as the original version provides in Hebrew.The sefer Nachlas Yosef is one of the most well-liked Hebrew commentaries on Megillas Rus. It was written by Rav Yoseph Lipowitz zt"l, a talmid of Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel zt"l, the Alter of Slobodka.

The Patchwork Torah by Allison Ofanansky Pdf

Kar-Ben Read-Aloud eBooks with Audio combine professional narration and text highlighting to bring eBooks to life! As a child, David watches his grandfather, a Torah scribe or sofer, finish a Torah scroll for the synagogue. "A Torah is not something to be thrown away," his Grandfather explains. David's grandfather carefully stores the old Torah his new one has replaced in his cabinet, hoping to one day repair the letters so the Torah can be used again. David grows up and becomes a sofer just like his grandfather. Through the years, people bring him damaged Torahs they have saved from danger and disaster - one damaged by Nazi soldiers during World War II, one damaged in a fire in a synagogue, and one in flooding during Hurricane Katrina. David stores each of these precious Torahs in his cabinet, until his granddaughter Leah gives him the idea to make a recycled Torah from the salvaged Torah scrolls.

Grace and Torah by Jacob Martin Myers Pdf

In both the Old and New Testaments the pattern of grace and Torah, in that order, is perhaps the central feature. The pattern is evident as early as the Exodus experience, and is to be traced through the prophets' memory of Moses all the way to the Pauline theme of God's deliverance in Jesus Christ. The Mosaic religion is one of grace. Covenant implies the grace of deliverance and the Torah itself is an act of grace. The Deuteronomist is concerned about Judah's failure to accept the Torah as a response to God's grace and love. The later prophets, most notably Jeremiah, speak of the Lord's goodness to Israel manifested both in his guidance through the desert and in his determination to renew the captive nation's response to his gracious deliverance through Christ, and the following chapters to the Torah of the Christian life. In brief scope, Professor Myers opens up fresh insights into the unity of the biblical message - the unity of grace and Torah.

As a Driven Leaf by Milton Steinberg Pdf

A spirited classic of American Jewish literature, a historical novel about ancient sage-turned-apostate Elisha ben Abuyah in the late first century C.E. At the heart of the tale are questions about faith and the loss of faith and the repression and rebellion of the Jews of Palestine. Elisha is a leading scholar in Palestine, elected to the Sanhedrin, the highest Jewish court in the land. But two tragedies awaken doubt about God in Elisha's mind, and doubt eats away at his faith. Declared a heretic and excommunicated from the Jewish community, he journeys to Antioch in nearby Syria to begin a quest through Greek and Roman culture for some fundamental irrefutable truth. The pace of the narrative picks up as Elisha directly encounters the full force of the ancient Romans' all-consuming culture. Ultimately, Elisha is forced by the power of Rome to choose between loyalty to his people, who are rebelling against the emperor's domination, and loyalty to his own quest for truth.--Publishers Weekly

A Journey Through Torah by Ben Zion Katz Pdf

Demonstrating that the supposed irreconcilability of modern, critical biblical scholarship and traditional Judaism has been overstated, this proposal argues that modern biblical scholarship is not as scientific as its proponents make it out to be, while traditional Jewish exegesis is more critical than is commonly appreciated. It is a synthesis of the two, author Ben Zion Katz sustains, that allows for the most nuanced and comprehensive understanding of the Torah.

Judaism's Life-Changing Ideas: a Weekly Reading of the Jewish Bible by Jonathan Sacks Pdf

What is Judaism? A religion? A faith? A way of life? A set of beliefs? A collection of commands? A culture? A civilization? It is all these, but it is emphatically something more. It is a way of thinking about life, a constellation of ideas. One might think that the ideas Judaism introduced into the world have become part of the common intellectual heritage of humankind, at least of the West. Yet this is not the case. Some of them have been lost over time; others the West never fully understood. Yet these ideas remain as important as ever before, and perhaps even more so. In this inspiring work, Rabbi Sacks introduces his readers to one Life-Changing Idea from each of the weekly parashot.
