Here for the first time under one cover are the central writings of the man many consider to be the foremost Jewish spiritual father of the twentieth century. Rabbi Kook was Chief Rabbi of Palestine until his death prior to the Second World War. Kook was a mystic, visionary, scholar and leader of his people whose perspective reflects the ancient classical spirituality of Judaism. This is an excellent book for anyone who wishes to discover these traditional roots as lived by a very modern man. Here are the major thoughts and themes of Rav Kook whose creative spirit stirred him to illuminate the core issues of our time. This is a most personal teacher with a cosmic view of the earth, its problems and its possibilities.
