5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on the Jewish Messiah by far, January 4, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Wolf Shall Lie with the Lamb (Hardcover)

It is no doubt that Rabbi Yoel Kahn is the worlds foremost teacher of Habad Hassidism alive. This is due to his unusual talent in explaining the abstract ideas contained in Hassidic thought. In this book, besides dealing with the basic concept of the Jewish redemtion with great profundity, the author (not withstanding his controversial status among hassidic Jews) is the first to have written Rabbi Kahns teachings in English. An additional comendable factor is the authors way of lightening up the intence, deep matters at hand. It is a must for anyone intrested in the hassidic veiw of redemtion, and an excellent way to begin studying hassidic philosiphy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful journey into Hasidism, December 28, 2000

This review is from: Wolf Shall Lie with the Lamb (Hardcover)

This book provides, at the same time, some in-depth reflections into Hasidism, as well as an introduction to Hasidic thought on the Messiah. In other words, it can be easily read and entertaining both for those with a deep knowledge of Hasidism (who will love Shmuley Boteach's views on the Messiah's coming), as well as those who know little about Hasidism (who will thus be able to find out more). The book is thrilling and filled with suspence, as well as data, information, and of course the author's views, as he ably attacks others and defends his own. Another great hit by this popular hasidic rabbi !
