Echoes of Eden: Insights Into the Weekly Torah Portion: Echoes of Sinai: Sefer Devarim Volume 5

Tantalizingly close yet ever so far from the Promised Land, Moshe delivers a message meant to encapsulate his life's work. His understanding of the destiny of the Jewish people and his enduring messages of love and faith are the subjects of this last book of the Torah. Above all, Moshe's words empower us to forge powerful, eternal relationships with God.

Plumbing the depths of Jewish sources, Rabbi Ari Kahn provides fascinating answers to age-old questions, infusing the parashah with fresh significance. Through provoking questions and intriguing insights, Rabbi Kahn continually inspires us to seek the Godly.

Echoes of Sinai completes a five-volume work on the weekly Torah portion, published jointly by Gefen Publishing House and the OU.

Rabbi Ari Kahn received his rabbinic ordination from Yeshiva University's Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, where he studied under Rabbi Yosef Dov Soloveitchik. He is the director of Foreign Student Programs and senior lecturer in Judaic studies at Bar-Ilan University in Israel.

He is a renowned speaker, and has lectured worldwide. Having authored over two hundred articles on the weekly parashah and holidays with a readership in excess of ten thousand, Rabbi Kahn is also the author of Explorations, an in-depth analysis of the weekly Torah reading, and Emanations, an in-depth analysis of the Jewish holidays.

Drawing upon the vast reservoir of rabbinic literature - from Talmud to Midrash, from the Zohar to the Hassidic masters - Rabbi Kahn combines the mystical explorations of kabbalah and Hassidut with a highly intellectual and broad-minded approach to Torah study. He applies psychology, literature and Jewish history to the understanding of esoteric midrashim and the Zohar.
