Tomer Devorah – Haas Family Edition Rabbi Moshe Cordevero's Classic Guide to Emulating Hashem's Thirteen Attributes of Mercy - Hardcover
Synopsis
Can a classic sefer, written by a master of kabbalah more than five centuries ago, speak to your life and transform it? Yes it can. Sefer Tomer Devorah shows you how to own your choices and become the generous, giving person Hashem knows you can be. Written by Rav Moshe Cordevero, a student of Rav Yosef Caro and teacher of many of the holy Kabbalists of Tzefas, Tomer Devora is a beloved classic. Its first chapter, particularly, has been studied by countless Jews reaching for self-mastery. We know that Hashem wants us to emulate Him. Yet how can we possibly be like Him when we are so tiny and He is infinitely vast? In its first chapter, Tomer Devorah offers a brilliant understanding of Hashem’s 13 middos, the traits with which He interacts with our world, and shows us how we can take those traits and, amazingly, turn them in some way into our own. This unique edition includes the original Hebrew text, an elucidated translation, footnotes explaining many vital concepts and a three-pronged commentary. In the commentary’s first subsection we examine Hashem’s trait. We then discover the trait’s parallel from a human perspective. The final subsection provides ideas and insights on implementing the midah into our lives. The Alter of Kelm called Tomer Devora the “Shulchan Aruch of Middos.” Open this important book and discover how, yes, you can emulate our Creator and become the person He meant you to be.
