The Thirteen Petalled Rose

A Discourse on the Essence of Jewish Existence and Belief

By: Adin Steinsaltz

Narrated by: Arnold Epstein

In this classic work of Jewish mystical thought, Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz explores the major questions asked by modern Jews about the nature of existence. The Thirteen Petalled Rose addresses profound topics like Good and Evil, Divine Revelation, The Human Soul and the Search for Self, as it translates ancient kabbalistic concepts into an intelligible language for a new generation.

scientific spiritual journey

worth reading / listening again and again and again and again.
the authors brilliance and knowledge shine through

thoughtful

complex. its a deep description of kabala and understanding God from all of Judaism. heavy duty but interesting

TRUE WORK

Great information, presentation for materials TOP NOTCH..
Very Concise, Good Flow of information, Giving the LISTENER A Good GRASP OF THE MATERIAL PRESENTED.....

So Worthwhile!

Steinsaltz does a beautiful job of describing Jewish teachings and values.

He is true to the mitzvot and classical thought, and he also brings to bear the chassidic as well as the more mystical views. He weaves them together to form a whole picture through the image of the thirteen petalled rose and other key ideas.

The listener, thus, gets the basics as well as a broader picture that encompasses all the various elements. Whether the listener is wanting a refresher or a short piece of these elements, he or she will leave the learning, I think, very satisfied.

The reader is excellent!

Classic time, memorable narrator. I highly recommend it, but it is a very challenging read.
