He would provide a paradigm of leadership, fusing courage and humility, selflessness and determination, passion and generosity: and his imprint would endure. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eIt would spread across the region, giving the kehillos of Austro-Hungary an example, a kehilla after which they could model themselves: it was a style of rabbanus, an approach to living. He showed the blessing of a yeshiva, the value of talmidei chachamim- and also, the glory of the ordinary citizens and their role, the preciousness of their minhagim. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eThey longed to imbibe his light: they pleaded with his talmidim to settle among them, to lead them, to protect and defend them. His Torah- psak, drush, hashkafa- became the bedrock of their own approach to avodas Hashem. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eFrom Pressburg, he ruled the Jewish world. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eThen he passed away, and his talmidim-and their talmidim- fanned the flames ever-brighter, the presence of the Chasam Sofer seeming to hover above European Jewry for a hundred years. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eAnd when it all collapsed, his inspiration fueled the rebuilding: we would start again, and we wouldn't compromise, wouldn't allow ourselves to believe that anything had changed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eWe have an Old Father, the Chasam Sofer would say, and He does not change. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eUntil today, the Chasam Sofer leads us: in this book, we'll see why, and we’ll see how. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eWith the storyteller's gift, the author makes it feel not like a lesson, but like a story, an enjoyable read: but the experience of soaking in the stories and divrei Torah and rich history will leave you with a clear sense of what this man represented, and what it means for each one of us. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;\"\u003eThe Chasam Sofer, scribe for eternity, is still teaching us. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yisroel Besser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e ArtScroll\/Mesorah Publications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 252\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.00 X 9.00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781422622322\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Biographies \u0026amp; Memoirs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy shop at Judaica Square?\u003c\/strong\u003e Authorized ArtScroll dealer with the full catalog.
