Product Description
by Peter Weisz (Author)
For eighteen unforgettable years, Rabbi Leonid Feldman served as the charismatic spiritual leader of Temple Beth El in West Palm Beach, Florida. As the world's only Soviet-born Conservative rabbi, Rabbi Feldman succeeded in deeply impacting the lives of his congregants, his colleagues and members of both the Jewish and gentile communities. This book is an eclectic collection of memories, drawn from the "Feldman Years" and shared by the people whose lives he profoundly touched. The stories, photos and other memorabilia catalogued in its pages are intended to serve not only as a chronicle of Rabbi Feldman's extraordinary tenure, but moreover to trigger fond memories of the life and times of this gifted teacher and spiritual mentor. Produced by his grateful followers at Temple Beth El as a keepsake testament and presented to him at the rabbi's induction as the congregation's Rabbi Emeritus, The Book of Chai may be enjoyed and appreciated by anyone interested in learning about this true Gadol Hador (giant of a generation).
