In this first one-volume English-language full biography of Abraham Joshua Heschel, Edward K. Kaplan tells the engrossing, behind-the-scenes story of the life, philosophy, struggles, yearnings, writings, and activism of one of the twentieth century's most outstanding Jewish thinkers.

Kaplan takes readers on a soulful journey through the rollercoaster challenges and successes of Heschel's emotional life. As a child he was enveloped in a Hasidic community of Warsaw, then he went on to explore secular Jewish Vilna and cosmopolitan Berlin. He improvised solutions to procure his doctorate in Nazi-dominated Berlin, escaped the Nazis, and secured a rare visa to the United States. He articulated strikingly original interpretations of Jewish ideas. His relationships spanned not only the Jewish denominational spectrum but also Catholic and Protestant faith communities. A militant voice for nonviolent social action, he marched with Martin Luther King Jr. (who became a close friend), expressed strong opposition to the Vietnam War (while the FBI compiled a file on him), and helped reverse long-standing antisemitic Catholic Church doctrine on Jews (participating in a secret meeting with Pope Paul VI during Vatican II).

From such prodigiously documented stories Heschel himself emerges--mind, heart, and soul. Kaplan elucidates how Heschel remained forever torn between faith and anguish; between love of God and abhorrence of human apathy, moral weakness, and deliberate evil; between the compassion of the Baal Shem Tov of Medzibozh and the Kotzker rebbe's cruel demands for truth. "My heart," Heschel acknowledged, is "in Medzibozh, my mind in Kotzk."

quick set up
Color: Rechargeable Set with Base
So far, 2 weeks, it was easy to fill, charged quickly, looks lovely, easy adjustment on the course to fine dial, great value, so far. and mush less clutter-y than the four different items I had to use to get both fine and course grands. Light weight and it appears to be built to last.

Game changer!
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
This electric salt and pepper grinder set is an absolute game-changer. With a generous capacity, you’ll refill far less often, and the rechargeable base keeps everything powered—no more hunting for batteries. The adjustable coarseness delivers perfect results every time, whether you’re finishing a dish with a fine seasoning or adding a bold, coarse grind. The built-in LED light gives you precise control, and the grinders themselves feel solid, high-quality, and impressively sleek. They look stunning on any counter or dinner table. If you want to elevate your kitchen experience—or give a gift that truly impresses—this set is a clear winner.

Excellent rechargeable salt & pepper grinders
Color: Stainless Steel
Love these rechargeable, refillable, salt & pepper grinders. Grinders work great & easy to set the grind. Also, easy to use, easy to clean and recharge. Much better than the battery power grinders.

Beautiful, functional, easy on hands, push button
Color: Stainless Steel
Update: these are great! I only charged them the day they arrived 3 months ago from Amazon, and have not had to charge them yet. They work efficiently every time my whole family loves using them,,especially the grandkids. I specifically wanted "push button" , and easy-rechargeable. I have arthritis so it's pretty amazing and wonderful. These rechargeable grinders are lightweight when they arrive, and easy to fill from the top. For each grinder, you will need to turn the top opening slightly to the left to release it, and then pull it open. My 9yo grandson had to show me. The salt and pepper grindersmake a relatively, low grinding sound, and have a small, shining,light at the bottom where the salt and pepper come out onto the food. The performance is good, the salt and pepper output seems not too much and not too little. Charging these grinders was extremely easy, and the little charging unit stand is provided with a C charger which you can connect into the back of the charging unit, and a USB connection on the other end for the wall .
