THE BOOK
Reflections on the Duality of Man
"The Lonely Man of Faith is a timeless philosophical essay by one of the twentieth century's greatest Jewish philosophers. In this classic work, Rabbi Soloveichik probes the inner experience of those who seek both redemptive closeness with God and creative engagement with the world.
With characteristic brilliance and eloquence, he delineates the struggle of people of faith to navigate between seemingly contradictory aspects of the human condition: the spiritual and the material, the religious and the scientific, the covenantal and the majestic."
Study Soloveitchik's profound Biblical reflections on the ambiguous meaning of being human.
