5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational wisdom, May 23, 2002

By 

Michael Erwin (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Jewish Soul on Fire (Hardcover)

It's been quite awhile since I have read the Rebbetzin's book but I remember being overawed by the spiritual depth and insight she provides. In The Jewish Soul on Fire, Rebbetzin Jungreis calls on all Jews to reassess their lives and implores them to return to the sanctification and fulfillment of traditional Judaism. It also chronicles her struggle to create the outreach organization, Hineni ("Here I am"), which has been the everyday realization of her message. Rebbetzin Jungreis has spent a lifetime combatting the spiritual holocaust among modern Jews which seemed to follow too closely the heels of the Nazi nightmare. People who have read her more recent work, The Committed Life, will recognize Soul on Fire as its nucleus. Her extraordinary knowledge, experience, and passion culminate to produce a work of inspiring and profound wisdom.
