Jewish Stories from Heaven and Earth
The Glory and Grief, Humor and Pride of the Human Experience— Inspiration from a Jewish Perspective From exile to rebirth, from degradation to renaissance, the Jewish People has undergone every human experience and emotion that God created. In this inspiring collection of stories, award-winning anthologist Dov Peretz Elkins captures the best and worst of Jewish experience in these spine-tingling tales of courage, devotion, passion and extraordinary achievement. Elkins taps the famous and the not-so-famous, world-renowned figures and the little-known “person next door,” for stories that illustrate the wonder, meaning, and purpose of life as viewed through the lens of Judaism’s core values. Though drawn from the Jewish tradition, these universal stories of kindness, hope, faith and discovery will intrigue the minds and warm the hearts of people from all walks of life.

Rav Noach Weinberg
Rav Noach taught a generation the meaning of taking responsibility. First and foremost, that meant taking responsibility for all of the Almighty's children who were so far from Judaism. It extended to every aspect of the Jewish world that needed leadership and guidance. Rav Noach lived with the faith that if we show the Almighty that we care enough, He will provide us with the means to repair His world. To that end, he sacrificed his personal Torah learning and time with his family over decades to build Aish HaTorah and to aid hundreds of other organizations. Scoffed at and dismissed at the outset of his life's mission, Rav Noach lived to see much of his vision fulfilled, though never to the degree for which he prayed and worked so ardently. Rav Noach Weinberg: Torah Revolutionary is an inspiring and thought-provoking biography, written by famed biographer Yonoson Rosenblum. This unique work honestly addresses the development, teachings, controversies, and legacy of one of the most powerful and influential Torah figures of recent times: Rav Noach Weinberg of Aish HaTorah.
Criminal Mitigation Case Studies
This volume presents 25 criminal mitigation sample reports from a wide range of issues that the criminal defense lawyers must tackle at the pre-plea and presentence phase of litigation. The mitigation reports serve to complement the criminal defense lawyer's advocacy by allowing the criminal defense lawyer to approach the pre-plea or presentence phase with a more complete understanding of the client's psychosocial background, mental health needs, family issues, and any and all other mitigating issues. The goal is to humanize the client so that the prosecutor and judge can identify with the traumas and challenges that the client has suffered to allow for greater empathy and justice.
Kabbalah and Modernity

My Father's House
In this intimate memoir, Yigal Allon shares recollections of his father, a proud pioneer-farmer in Kfar Tavor in the 1920s-30s who retired in Ginosar, the kibbutz co-founded by his son Yigal, and how his father’s personality and life in Jewish settlements in the Galilee before the establishment of the State of Israel shaped his own life. “The father thought to name the son ‘Yigael,’ which means ‘He will be redeemed,’ but decided that was too passive a name, and chose instead ‘Yigal,’ which means ‘He will redeem.’ The Russian‐Jewish farmer’s son became a watchman, a British policeman, member of a kibbutz, a leader of the ragtag 1948 liberation war, a scholar, a major general and Israel’s deputy prime minister and minister for foreign affairs. This book, Yigal Allon’s act of homage to his father, shows a public man turning inward. He has no political argument to make, unless the word of his father about Mount Tabor makes a declaration of intention about the land of Israel: ‘Maybe there are others more beautiful, but none is just as beautiful.’... a memoir, both discreet and revealing, by an important public man.” — Herbert Gold, The New York Times

But it's not just the number 11 that is showing up in people's lives, it is often accompanied by unusual events or profound insights. Mysterious numbers a...
