SynopsisEven during his lifetime, Rabbi Shlomo Goren (19171994) stood as an exemplar of rabbinic leadership, a gadol renowned for his wisdom and courage, responsibility and dedication. The young boy from Poland who grew up tilling the land of newfound Israeli villages, enlisted in the Jewish underground, and fought in the War of Independence, rose to become the first chief rabbi of the IDF and, later, the State of Israel. Drawing on his exceptional Torah knowledge, Rabbi Goren confronted the halakhic challenges of sovereignty, molding the character of the Jewish military and state. Based on a first-person account recorded in the final years of his life, With Might and Strength tells the story of a legendary chief rabbi and halakhic decisor, a leader who left his indelible imprint on twentieth-century halakha and the modern State of Israel.

Rabbi Goren was a strict adherent to, and a brilliant decision of, the Halacha, which is the system of Rabbinic rules developed over millennia and followed, to varying degrees and some diverse practices, by Jewish communities throughout the world. The rabbi was also a brilliant Talmudic scholar and innovator in deciphering Halachic sources to meet the exigencies of practicing Jews in modern society. Rabbi Goren inspired both loyal devotion, including that of the astute compiler of the stories in this book, and the intense hostility by strict construction Rabbis who invariably were his his inferiors in both scholarship and intellectual capacity. This is a compelling and well-presented autobiography worth reading g that also contains some wonderful archival photos of Rabbi Goren with great historical Israeli figures -- all of whom were his colleagues and very restful of him, and many of whom were also his close friends -- including David Ben Gurion, Menachem Begin and Generals Moshe Dayan, Yitzchak Rabin and Ariel Sharon.
