    Abraham Heschel's True Passion
  

*by C***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2003*

The book analyses the thoughts of the Kotzker Rebbe by contrasting and comparing him to the Danish theologian and philosopher, Soren Kierkegaard. Few men could ever have conceived and written such an incisive work; no one else could have approached it with such an inner feel for the Hasidic tradition and yet, with a mind open to the teachings of Christian theologians.Every thought resonates with Heschel's major "popular" statements of religion and Jewish philosophy, "God in Search of Man', and "Man is not Alone". It is obvious from reading this work that Heschel's own philosophy drew heavily on the Kotzker Rebbe's teachings - strip away the adornments and seek the essence and truth.It is quite unfortunate that Heschel's major work on the Kotzker was never translated from the original Yiddish. Until such translation is published, this book alone provides both an incisive look at theological radicalism and a sense of the misdirection of most modern theories of religion.

    Magnificent
  

*by E***I on Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2010*

This is a magnificent study of the life of the Kotzker. There was a bit too much about the life of Kiergegaard included but it was interesting nevertheless. One odd thing is that the book makes reference in several footnotes to a work of AJ Heschel's solely on the Kotzker that I don't believe was ever published due to Heschel's sudden death. There should be an editor's note explaining this to readers. I have searched and searched for it and can't find it so I can only imagine that he died before it was published.  But if you are interested in the life and times of the Kotzker, definitely buy this book - it will move you immensely.
