The RIbnitzer - Hebrew Edition - by Rabbi Nachman Seltzer - Hardcover, ArtScroll

He was a tzaddik. A ba'al mofes, a miracle worker. In time he became a living legend, the address for thousands seeking berachos, first in Russia, then in Eretz Yisrael and eventually in America.

This is the Hebrew edition of Rabbi Nachman Seltzer's account of the Ribnitzer Rebbe. Seltzer is one of the most widely read biographers writing today, and the appeal of his work is narrative rather than reverential: the story moves, and it carries the reader through decades and continents without ever reading like a catalogue of dates.

The life itself spans the hardest terrain of the last century. A Jew who kept his avodah alive under Soviet rule, who was sought out for berachos by people who traveled great distances to find him, and whose reputation crossed from Russia to Eretz Yisrael and then to America, is a subject that needs no embellishment.

320 pages, hardcover, 6 by 9 inches. This Hebrew edition suits a reader who prefers to read in lashon hakodesh or a household where Hebrew is the language of the bookshelf, and it makes a strong gift for a reader of Torah biography. Free shipping on orders over $75 at Judaica Square.
