Rabbi Kahn… combine[s] his usual erudition and depth, with the brevity that is required for a devar Torah that is said around the Shabbos table. — Rabbi Pesach Sommer

A River Flowed from Eden is the perfect Torah addition to your Shabbat table. Rabbi Ari Kahn has collected 54 of his thought-provoking short essays on each parashah, in a volume that is sure to spark interest and meaningful Torah and parsha-based discussion. It raises existential and philosophical issues, culling contemporary messages from the sacred, timeless text of the Torah and the rich Rabbinic tradition. In the words of Rabbi Aharon Lichtenstein, Rabbi Kahn’s writings are “rooted in text and rooted in values.” Grappling with the challenges presented by the text, the trials and tribulations of Judaism’s founding mothers and fathers, and the philosophical underpinnings of observance, Rabbi Kahn illuminates the remarkably contemporary issues of morality and faith, society and sanctity contained in each Torah portion.
