A collection of original and unique sermons for Elul, Selihot and Rosh HaShana from one of Israel's preeminent scholars, Rabbi Shimon Gershon Rosenberg, "Shagar". Rabbi Shagar's first work to appear in English, The Human and the Infinite is comprised of his transcribed lectures on the meaning of repentance, forgiveness and compassion. Through a blend of Hasidism and existential philosophy, Rabbi Shagar offers powerful ideas to help us search our hearts and draw close to G-d as we prepare for Rosh HaShana and Yom Kipppur.
