ABRAHAM'S JOURNEY: 
                   REFLECTIONS ON THE LIFE OF THE FOUNDING PATRIARCH

DAYS OF DELIVERANCE: ESSAYS ON PURIM AND HANUKKAH

For Rav Soloveitchik, Purim and Hanukkah stand at the nexus of faith and history, of human effort and divine intervention, of solemnity and joyous celebration. In the Purim essays, the Rav breathes vivid life into the characters and events of the Megillah, and demonstrates the story’s universal and contemporary messages. In the Hanukkah essays, too, the Rav draws universal lessons from the story of the Hasmonean rebellion, and utilizes the spiritual core of the Hanukkah story to explain the holiday’s distinctive halakhic features. Edited by Eli D. Clark, Joel B. Wolowelsky, and Reuven Ziegler.

FESTIVAL OF FREEDOM: Essays on Pesah and the Haggadah  

For Rabbi Soloveitchik, the Seder night is “endowed with a unique and fascinating quality, exalted in its holiness and shining with a dazzling beauty.” It possesses profound experiential and intellectual dimensions, both of them woven into the fabric of halakhic performance. In these ten essays, the Rav explains how the resonances of the Seder extend far beyond the confines of one night, conveying the philosophy of Jewish history and opening vistas not just on the Jewish people's past, but on its present and future.  Edited by Joel B. Wolowelsky and Reuven Ziegler.

THE EMERGENCE OF ETHICAL MAN

For thousands of years, philosophers have pondered the question what it means to be human. Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik, answers the question in The Emergence of Ethical Man, the fifth volume in the series. Relying on both scientific research and classical Jewish sources, Soloveitchik explains how a thoroughly naturalistic setting could give birth to human personality -- and to Judaism's expectation of moral character and self-transcendence. The resulting religious anthropology is a startlingly fresh reading of the early chapters of Genesis, and highlights Judaism's distinctive view among those of other religious traditions. Edited by Michael Berger.

WORSHIP OF THE HEART: Essays on Jewish Prayer
contains ten chapters on Shema and the Amidah. With profound insight and galvanizing passion, the Rav explores the crucial interface between living religious experience and halakhic norm. In defining the inward experiences accompanying various sections of prayer, he addresses the tensions between the aesthetic and the ethical, the sense of God's presence and His absence, human dependence and exaltation, and stability and change. Thereby, he outlines what prayer offers modern man and what it demands of him. Edited by Shalom Carmy.
