New Contemporary Bible Commentary from Israel
"Bible Dynamics - evolving personalities and ideas" by Pinchas Polonsky, is a uniquely innovative approach to the Torah commentaries, addressing the need of today's reader.
NEWTON, Mass., July 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Rabbi P. Goldschmidt, President of the Conference of European Rabbis (CER), states: "Pinchas Polonsky, a notable refusenik of the Soviet era, is today a prolific thinker and writer, introducing Jewish philosophy to the broader public. His latest work, deeply influenced by the teachings of Rabbi Yehuda Leon Ashkenazi (Manitou), one of French Jewry's leading philosophers of the second half of the 20th century. This book will introduce Rabbi Askenazi's monumental ideas to a wider audience."
Biblical personalities are traditionally presented as larger-than-life, heroic figures, who surmount incredible obstacles to advance the world. And yet, little emphasis is placed on their personal evolution.
But according to the centuries-old Kabbalistic tradition revealed in our times by Rabbi Y. L. Ashkenazi, the heroes of the Torah are evolving personalities who undergo profound change throughout their lives while acquiring new ideas and personal qualities through their ongoing dialogue with God.
It is precisely this approach that emphasizes the process of development of people and ideas that meets the needs of modern man.
The Bible Dynamics commentary is a unique interpretation of the Torah through the lens of this tradition.
