Psychology and Personal Growth in the Torah Vol. 2
Book • 2021
The 'Practical Lessons from the Rishonim' volumes by Rabbi Shimon Feder compile short, focused insights derived from classical medieval commentators and Rishonim to address everyday ethical and spiritual questions.
Designed for use in outreach, shiurim, and short Divrei Torah, the books present Hebrew sources with clear English explanations and actionable takeaways.
Feder organizes material so readers of different backgrounds can engage — from learned students who wish to study the originals to newcomers seeking inspirational reflections.
The volumes aim to reveal the 'bothered by a question' methodology of Rashi and others, using those tensions as springboards for modern personal development.
Overall, they serve as a bridge making classical Torah thought directly applicable to contemporary character growth.
