Moral Grandeur and Spiritual Audacity Essays Abraham Joshua Heschel Susannah Heschel 9780374524951 Books Reviews


  • I'm a Christian who greatly appreciates Heschel, and I've read several of his books. To fellow-Christians, I think you'll find yourself agreeing with 99% of what Heschel writes, and his spiritual insights are profound. I've found it helpful to read outside of my tradition, and I initially read Heschel to learn more about Judaism; I now read him to learn more about God.
  • A true voice of moral authority. His writing is elegant, and his insights are fundamental.
  • More ideas to live by written by a great man of the 20th century.
  • At this point in history, no one really "rates" or critiques Heschel. We all sit back and marvel over his lyrical prose, firm faith, and uncompromising devotion to Yahweh. A beautiful collection of his work!
  • A wonderful collection of Rabbi Heschel's writing covering many years of his life. I particularly enjoyed the essays on his evolving activism during the Vietnam War and the way in which it called him out of "the ivory tower". I go back and re-read essays in this book on a regular basis -- much as one would listen to favorite tracks on a music CD. His perspectives and extraordinary depth of spirit never grow old.
  • Get ready for and in-depth study of the questions that perplex humanity written by a brilliant scholar.
  • A must read for everyone. It contains all the wisdom and sensitivity and questions from a great theological and moral mind.
  • Thoughtful and profound essays.
