On Repentance

The Thought and Oral Discourses of Rabbi Joseph Dov Soloveitchik

By: Pinchas H. Peli

For five decades prior to his death in 1993, Rabbi Joseph Dov Soloveitchik was the unchallenged leader of modern Orthodox Judaism in the United States. His understanding of both traditional Judaism and secular philosophy shaped two generations of rabbinic students at Yeshiva University, and charted a new course for American Orthodox Jews. In On Repentance, noted scholar Pinchas Peli has gathered the major points of Rabbi Soloveitchik's teachings on teshuvah (repentance), based on the annual series of lectures on the theme of teshuvah, presented on the anniversary of his father's death. For many Jews, these lectures were the major academic and intellectual event of the year. Outside of his followers however, few were able to experience the genius of Rabbi Soloveitchik. He gave his lectures in Yiddish, and generally refused to publish. Now readers can experience the brilliant thinking of this great teacher and sage.

Torah Today

A Renewed Encounter with Scripture

By: Pinchas H. Peli,Harold M. Schulweis

The central element of Jewish worship is the yearly cycle of reading the first five books of the Bible, the Five Books of Moses, called the Torah in Hebrew. Torah Today, a compilation of fifty-four essays that grew out of Pinchas Peli's Torah column in the Jerusalem Post, comments upon the weekly readings from the Torah. Written in a clear style, each essay brings the reader closer to the rich spiritual world of Torah as it confronts the challenges of modern society. These commentaries, which emulate the traditional midrash, have long been essential reading for Jews throughout the world - families at the Shabbat dinner table, pulpit rabbis, teachers, and students of the Bible. Christians, too, have been among Rabbi Peli's devoted readers. This reissue of Torah Today, with a new preface by Rabbi Harold M. Schulweis, makes this classic work available to a new generation of Bible students."--Jacket.
