This is incredible! What a wonderful story of awakening. And now what a story of courage, grief, purpose and mission. Through your eyes I felt like I was there. I am looking forward to the book. Baruch Hashem! Reply

What an amazing interview and a touching story.

I am not Jewish, but I believe in the Creator, the God of Israel. I sometimes attend events at the nearest chabad. I have to say, there is quite a variety of people that I meet there, from a Jewish woman who I guess doesn’t believe in God and who has a very profane mouth, to the rabbi and his wife who are very kind and welcoming to all. I am very impressed with his gracious manner and ability to interact with whoever shows up.

I’m sure Eli was the same and I’m so gratified to learn about this book and that a record of his words of wisdom and insight have been left as a legacy to the world. Reply
