| | Powell's Books - Insights of Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik: Discourses on Fundamental Theological Issues in Judaism by ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | Soloveitchik, a 20th-century scholar now apparently dead, is well known for his work on the Torah, but Weiss, a rabbi in Boston, thinks his thoughts on other matters should be better known as well. |
 | | Drawing from and commenting on Soloveitchik's writing, he discusses creation and God, observance and experience, ethical virtues and morals, man and woman, the state of Israel, personal and family outlook, and other topics. |
 | | He was widely regarded as the intellectual leader of an open, engaged, and meaningful Orthodoxy for the twentieth century. |
