In Search Of Holiness

"In Search Of Holiness" is based upon a selection of articles from the extensive writings of the late Rabbi Ephraim Levy Gastwirth - communal leader, educator and philosopher. His deep insight, knowledge and reflective style provides an unusual perspective on twentieth century Anglo-Jewry. Sir Jonathan Sacks, Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of Great Britain & the Commonwealth comments: "Rabbi Ephraim Gastwirth was one of the great teachers of Anglo Jewry. "In Search Of Holiness" is how he lived his days ... fulfilling the teachings of the Torah. Its words were constantly on his lips and because he loved them, he inspired that love in those he taught." Dayan Chanoch Ehrentrau, Rosh Bet Din, London comments: "Rabbi Ephraim Gastwirth was a Torah personality ... who came to grips with the problems of his time. He pierced the superficialities of everyday concerns to reach endless individuals, assisting them to achieve high standards of holiness in their lives."
