The Face of the Waters: Chasidic teachings & stories for the twenty-first century

The Face of the Waters is a collection of moving and thought-provoking stories, essays and translations, based on the teachings of Kabbalah and Chasidism, and presented in a way that speaks to the search for spirituality in the modern world. Drawn from the teachings of such great Chasidic Masters as the Baal Shem Tov, Rabbi Nachman of Breslov and Rabbi Tzadok HaKohen, the essays and stories deal with such topics as love, family, faith, hope and the future, all seen from a Jewish mystical perspective, and presented in a way that speaks to both the mind and the heart. There are only a few people that can articulate the depth of Torah in a fashion that touches the heart. Rabbi Eliezer Shore is one of those people. - Rabbi Yaacov Haber, Rabbi of Kehillas Shivtei Yeshurn, Israel

Eliezer Shore’s writings bring depth and insight to anyone seriously engaged in Judaism as a spiritual path - Sarah Yehudit Scheider, Founder, Director: A Still Small Voice
