Rabbi Hershel Schachter's Collected Writings I by Rabbi Hershel Schachter

About the Book

Rabbi Hershel Schachter has consistently imparted a crucial message to his students, emphasizing the responsibility of each generation of rabbinical leaders to pass the torch of Torah to the next. This obligation encompasses navigating novel halachic (Jewish law) inquiries, determining which minhagim (customs) to uphold, addressing hashkafic (philosophical) dilemmas, and tackling an array of other challenges (refer to the introduction to Rabbi Schachter's "B'Ikvei HaTzon"). Within this compilation, we have gathered numerous insightful essays written by Rabbi Schachter, offering profound insights into these multifaceted issues. The book delves into pivotal subjects spanning various facets of Jewish life, such as the definition of a Jew, the qualifications for a Rabbi, the religious obligations to secular law, considerations surrounding the determination of time of death, perspectives on Israel, insights into Kashrus, and much more.

The goal of this publication is twofold: to provide access to Rabbi Schachter's published works that may not be readily available and to update cross-references and appendixes with additional works by Rabbi Schachter.
