Rabino Pynchas Brener

Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson was one of the greatest and influential Jewish leaders of the XX Century. Even though his predecessor and father in law started with the sending of emissaries to different parts of the world, it was the Rebbe that was able to move this process exponentially and convert Chabad into a world Jewish movement, whose presence is felt in every corner of the globe. The author of this intelectual biographical work is Adin Steinsaltz who comes from the scientific world but became a close follower of the Rebbe. Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz is the author of the monumental “Steinsaltz edition of the Talmud” originally published in Hebrew and now in an english version. The book is not only factual, it is also an evaluation of the philosophy of Chabad. Highly recommended.
