Description

Starting with the Ba'al Shem Tov, of course, what does Chassidut say about the extent of the focus on "simcha" in Avodat Hashem? What were the pushbacks to this approach? Is there any way to synthesize these two approaches in a post-modern Jewish world? [Thank you to Baruch S. Davidson and Naftali Silberberg for a comprehensive article on this topic that I drew from.]
