Inhaltsangabe

A companion volume to Gold from the Land of Israel, this book presents Rabbi Abraham Isaac HaKohen Kook&;s thoughts on Shabbat and Jewish holidays in a clear, succinct style. Among the questions addressed in this compilation of Rabbi Kook&;s teaching are Why are Jews instructed to drink on Purim? What is the role of art and literature? Why is there a need for both an oral and written Torah? Why is Chanukah not celebrated with a festive meal? and Why is the Temple so important? The writings of the celebrated first Chief Rabbi of pre-state Israel&;often difficult to absorb for their poetic and mystical nature&;are accessibly presented in this offering.
