Overview

In the Beginning: Discourses on Chasidic Thought is a journey through the Book of Genesis by one of the most respected thinkers of our generation. Drawing on the teachings of Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, the found¬ing father of Chabad chassidut, Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz takes readers deep into the mysteries of Creation. As he explores the stories of the foundational book of the Torah, Rabbi Steinsaltz addresses some of the most profound philosophical questions that humanity has grappled with throughout the ages: life and death, good and evil, chaos and order, truth, faith, and prayer. Like his many previous works, In the Beginning offers a profound new understanding of the words of the Torah.
