The Essential Writings of Abraham Isaac Kook

Breathtaking vision of the future, much of which is now the past. Many of Kooks prophesies have already been realized. Lots of insight into the pushback he got from "leading authorities" Excellent book

This Rav is a genius, not an easy read...please take your time and try and digest the whole thing....this guy is brilliant!!

For years I've been looking for a book that could give me some insight into Rav Kook the man as well as a glimpse into the movement he has created. The author does an excellent job accomplishing both. "The Essential Writings of Rav Kook" has given me a much greater understanding of this very holy man. Bokser has done a wonderful job painting the picture of this very pious, and controversial, Torah giant. I heartily recommend this book and believe that it should be required reading in all Jewish day schools/ Yeshivot.
