Sinopsis

Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz was internationally regarded as one of the most brilliant and influential rabbis of our time. He was lauded byáTimeámagazine as a 'once-in-a-millennium scholar' and by Ted Koppel ofáNight Lineáas 'one of the very few wise men that IâÇÖve ever met.'áArthur Kurzweil -- himself a Jewish scholar, author, teacher, and publisher -- a disciple of Rabbi SteinsaltzâÇÖs for more than 35 years, as well as the rabbiâÇÖs designated chauffer in the United States. While stuck in countless traffic jams and attending the rabbiâÇÖs lectures at universities, government agencies, synagogues and seminars, Arthur Kurzweil has had the rare opportunity of personally learning from his inspired teacher and has become intimately familiar with the rabbiâÇÖs wisdom and teachings.On the Road with Rabbi Steinsaltz presents an intimate portrait of this wise and holy man as he has never been seen before as Kurzweil shares the rabbiâÇÖs most personal, humorous, and inspiring tales.You will feel like a backseat passenger in ArthurâÇÖs car as he and Rabbi Steinsaltz discuss provocative issues such as:How can we develop a personal relationship with God?What are some of the sublime ideas contained in Kabbalah?Why has God created a world with so much suffering in it?Can we be religious and live fully in the world?How can we tell what is important and what is unimportant in this life?Can we be religious and keep our sense of humor?Throughout the book Arthur Kurzweil also shares Rabbi SteinsaltzâÇÖs views and teachings on Jewish identity and the role of Jews in modern society. So grab your overcoat and come along for a ride with Rabbi Steinsaltz and Arthur Kurzweil-a ride that could very well change your life.
