Rabbi Ari KahnRabbi Ari Kahn received his rabbinic ordination from Yeshiva University's Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, where he studied under Rabbi Yosef Dov Soloveitchik. He is the director of Foreign Student Programs and senior lecturer in Judaic stuies at Bar-Ilan University in Israel. He is a renowned speaker, and has lectured worldwide. Having authored over two hundred articles on the weekly parashah and holidays with a readership in excess of ten thousand, Rabbi Kahn is also the author of Explorations, an in-depth analysis of the weekly Torah reading, and Emanations, an in-depth analysis of the Jewish holidays. Drawing upon the vast reservoir of rabbinic literature - from Talmud to Midrash, from the Zohar to the Hassidic masters - Rabbi Kahn combines the mystical explorations of kabbalah and Hassidut with a highly intellectual and broad-minded approach to Torah study. He applies psychology, literature and Jewish history to the understanding of esoteric midrashim and the Zohar. Read More Read Less
