Judaism From Within

Rabbi Simi Lerner

A tribute to the legacy of Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch

Why This Title? It was his motto ’sich selbst begreifendes Ju dentum ’, Judaism understood from within, a term that encapsulates Rav Hirsch’s approach of diving into the essence of Judaism, viewing it through its inherent structures rather than through external lenses.
