Defender of the Faithful

The Life and Thought of Rabbi Levi Yitshak of Berdychiv

About this book

The first scholarly biography of Levi Yitshak of Berdychiv in English in over thirty-five years.
 
Defender of the Faithful explores the life and thought of Levi Yitshak of Berdychiv (1740–1809), one of the most fascinating and colorful Hasidic leaders of his time. This is an intellectual and religious biography, a reading of the development of his thought and career. Featuring examples of Levi Yitshak's extraordinary texts alongside insightful analysis by scholar and theologian Arthur Green, Defender of the Faithful is a compelling study of both Levi Yitshak's theology and broader philosophy.
