Gold from the Land of Israel - A New Light on the Weekly Torah

Gold from the Land of Israel - A New Light on the Weekly Torah Portion from the Writings of Rabbi Abraham Isaac HaKohen Kook: An Insightful Bible Commentary on the Parasha Based on Rav Kook's Thought

"Inspiring! This book is truly wonderful. Rav Kook zt"l is one of the most important Jewish thinkers and leaders of the last century... This book makes his words accessible and understandable. I highly recommend it."
-- Rabbi Shmuel Jablon, author of "Keys to Success"

Rav Kook's writings, due to their poetic and mystical nature, are difficult even for those fluent in Hebrew and rabbinical texts. Gold from the Land of Israel uses a clear, succinct style to grant the reader a window into his original and creative insights.

This book elucidates his thoughts on many fascinating topics in the format of a commentary to the Torah portion. Discussed are subjects such as:

Can we reconcile the Torah's account of creation with modern science?
What is the Torah's view on vegetarianism?
What is the purpose of death?
Why do bad things happen to good people?
Why do we have dreams?
Will the Third Temple have animal sacrifices?
How can one attain joy in serving God?
How should we balance our time between Torah study and work?

"Rav Chanan Morrison explains Rav Kook's Torah like no one else... Purchase this book if you truly want to understand Rav Kook and bring the fulfillment of his teachings into your heart." -- Yoely Zipkin
