$39.00
מעיקרי האמונה הוא החיוב להאמין שהקב”ה מושלל הוא מגשם וציור גופני. אך האומנם זאת היא הדיעה המוסכמת אצל גדולי ישראל לדורותיהם? והאם ביכולתו ית׳ הבלתי בעל גבול להתלבש גם בדמות גופני? על שלילת הגשמות והנמנעות אצלו ית׳ בספרות החקירה והחסידות.

Bitachon. It’s a powerful word; the absolute faith that G-d will always provide. From financial deals to health concerns, travel arrangements to hopes for the future – we trust that G-d only acts for the best. But how can we have Bitachon when we’re faced with a violent and dangerous world? When personal tragedy strikes, how can we continue to have faith? Where is the line drawn between Bitachon and folly? When one laughs in the face of nature, is he trusting in G-d or scorning G-d’s providence?

Life is an endless gauntlet of tests and challenges. Judaism teaches us that G-d never gives us a challenge we can’t surmount, but the question remains: why? Why does G-d continuously test us?

The Rambam is known as the “Great Eagle” of Torah scholarship because of his incisive logic, brilliant analysis, masterful organization and a host of other attributes. But as inseparable components of Torah, synthesizing the halachic teachings of the Mishneh Torah and the philosophical positions of the Moreh Nevuchim, can be perplexing.
We present a review of the unique approach of the Lubavitcher Rebbe to the discrepancies between some of Rambam’s philosophical writings and traditional Halachic thinking. The Rebbe presents a coherent profile of a Rambam you may have not yet met.

The human soul has always sensed the presence of a greater power. Yet the “G-d of Concealment” has somewhat evaded logical discovery.
Study some of the classic proofs for the existence of the Creator as presented by classic Jewish Philosophers (R. Saadya Gaon, Rambam, R’ Bachye ibn Paquda, Ralbag and others), the challenges presented by some more modern authors (including Hume, Kant, Neizche, Darwin and Dawkins) and some of the responses offered to their ideas.
Including a summary and some suggested readings.

struggle to understand G-d’s ways. Is it ok to openly challenge Him? Is it a
sign of deep belief or deep blasphemy? What about the Jewish greats, Moses at
their head, who brazenly questioned G-d? This paper is a comprehensive study of
the acceptable Jewish response to death, tragedy and pain.

“If you are righteous, what do you give Him?” (Job 35:7)
It is axiomatic that mortal actions are completely insignificant to an infinite creator. Yet the Torah provides examples of where human actions set off a chain reaction throughout the cosmos, affecting the supernal realms or reality. What are some of these examples, and how should they be understood?

Our Sages teach that the passing of the righteous serves to pardon the misdeeds of the generation. Does actual penitence on the part of the people play any role in the forgiveness that is granted? Is this associated, in any way, with the date of the passing of the righteous individual?

כי בצלם אלקים עשה את האדם. האומנם? והרי אינו שייך ציור גופני אצל הקב״ה ח״ו? להלן חקר ועיון תמציתי משלל הפירושים שנאמרו בזה על ידי מפרשי המקרא, הוגי מחשבת ישראל, ומאורי הקבלה והחסידות.
