Duties of the Heart / Chovos Ha Levavos – 2 Volume Set

description of book We have always been known as the People of the Book. Living by that Book ever since we received it, studying the Torah in an unbroken flow of generations since time immemorial, our people has become heir to an unparalleled wealth of learning, a repository of knowledge for creative religious education and life by faith. Out of this vast store of our heritage, committed to writing by our greatest sages and scholars, some works have come to be regarded as Torah classics― profoundly moving volumes of matchless thought and inspired teaching that have made the values and perspectives of the Torah flourish beyond their own time and place. It is these works which Feldheim Publishers presents in The Torah Classics Library, in fine translations for the English reader. As a rule, the most accurate Hebrew text is chosen, and the English version is produced by someone thoroughly familiar with the subject who is, as well, master of the English language. Wherever feasible, the Hebrew, fully vocalized (menukad), is printed with the English on facing pages. Every title in this distinguished series is designed to form a valuable addition to the bookshelf of the thoughtful reader and student, as a primary source of knowledge that can provide lasting inspiration and education throughout the years. Chovos HaLevavos/Duties of the Heart is a fundamental work probing the depths of the man/ God relationship, delineating responsibilities and rewards of maintaining the beautiful balance of this Divine interaction.
