Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the third in a series of lectures that focus on the evolution of the rabbi's role from the time of the Hebrew Bible to the present day. In this installment, the author explores the rabbi's function as a teacher from the time they assume their role as spiritual leaders. The author highlights the need for rabbis to have received thorough training in addition to their religious studies and to cultivate a sense of leadership that is based on personal charisma as well as their position. Although the rabbi's ultimate goal is to lead others to a spiritual path, they can only do so effectively if they are able to establish genuine human connections with those in their charge. Above all else, the author emphasizes the rabbi's responsibility to be a role model for their community, both inside and outside the realm of religious observance. In this way, the rabbi can illuminate the path toward righteousness and truth through their own example.
