Worship of the Heart | Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik | Prayer | Ktav | 2003 | The biblical command to serve God "with all your heart" is interpreted by Jewish
tradition to refer to prayer. The Rav explores the crucial interface between
living religious experience and halakhic norms --the hallmark of his work. He
analyzes the Amidah, the Shema, and other biblical and liturgical texts, and
also considers the tension between human dependence and exaltation, the ethical
and the aesthetic, the presence and absence of God, and the yearning for
stability and the desire for change.
