The Essence of Jewish Holidays

This collection, compiled based on the articles and speeches of R. Adin Even-Israel (Steinsaltz), is dedicated to the holidays and memorial dates of the Jewish calendar. These special days, with roots going back into the past, mark important events. Some of them are established in the Pentateuch, while others were added in later periods. Jewish holidays are like temporary milestones that measure the cycles of the year. The author finds wise and precise words while telling about the essence of such days and their significance in our lives.
