There is a certain madness to this idea of talking to G‑d, of saying “You” to the Ground of Reality.... Like the madness of love or of unbounded joy

Tzvi Freeman is one of the best thinkers of our time. His dynamc, modern approach makes it easy to understand even the deepest dimensions of the Torah. Every bit of his writings are facinating and fun to read. Everyone can get inspired by understanding and internalizing these articles.

I am not Jewish, but I absolutely LOVED this little essay. It is profoundly spiritual and very practical at the same time. It has touched me at a very deep level.

Not Jewish, but for some time already I 've been reading articles on chabad.org. Sometimes I may be feeling at a loss, (as a non-Jewish reader), because of certain attitudes some texts espouse, but most of times reading feels like weirdly "coming back home". .
Well, the latter is mostly thanks to Tzvi... I fell in love with his writing long ago, but this piece deserves a special thanks.

" Moses called it a bum deal. He liberated G-d and let Him into His world. "
What a delight of of inspiration! That one statement epitomiizes the essence of Judaism. It separates us from all the "ancient religions" and in a nutshell it crystalizes why we are "we" and "they" are them.
