Description

The Life and Legacy of
Rav Yisroel Alter of Gur
Rav Yisroel Alter, the Beis Yisroel, became the Rebbe of Gur at a
time of deep darkness. Just a few years earlier, tens of thousands
of Gerrer chassidim had perished in the Holocaust, and the few who'd
survived faced the daunting challenge of beginning new lives.
Rav Yisroel became the Rebbe - and he rebuilt. More: the revered
Beis Yisroel raised a generation of chassidim on fire with ambitious
goals and aspirations, chassidim yearning for Torah and kedushah.
In just 25 years, the Beis Yisroel - the man with the rapid pace and
burning eyes - rebuilt a world, miraculously leading Gerrer chassidus
to almost unimaginable levels of greatness.
And yet...
Even as he relentlessly demanded more - more learning, more
sanctity, more focus, more intensity - he was at the same time a
loving, empathetic, wise shepherd, able to gently and patiently allow
people the time and space they needed to grow.
Written with the flair and emotion that have made Yisroel Besser's
biographies so beloved, The Beis Yisroel tells both stories - the story
of the Rebbe's immeasurable impact on a nation still reeling, and the
individual stories of how he was able to heal, encourage, and uplift.
From a sign painter to his beloved talmidim, from survivors whose
horrific experiences had sent them far from their chassidic routes
to bachurim struggling with the lures of secular society - whatever
the challenges, the Rebbe was there to help and guide and find the
greatness of every Jew.
As we read story after story of rebuilding a chassidus - and
rebuilding individuals - we will experience some of the awe, joy, and
yearning that people felt in the presence of the Rebbe, the Beis Yisroel.
