Description

Live from Limmud in UK, WebYeshiva's Rabbi Jeffrey Saks's session on: Rav Kook, the mystic and rabbi, and S.Y. Agnon, the Nobel laureate author, shared a special relationship, each plumbing the depths of Jewish modernity, and the religious meaning of expression. What drew them together, how did they differ, and how did they view a new, authentic Hebrew literature as part of the national revival?
