The Nesivos Shalom is a sefer which enjoys enormous popularity in every nook and cranny of the Orthodox world - Litvish, Yeshivish, Right-wing, Centrist, Shtreimel and Kippah Serugah. The Slonimer Rebbe zt"l seems to have found the perfect mix of passionate and inspiring Chassidus, and Mussar that speaks directly to the individual. As a seasoned leader, he understood people with all their contemporary faults and is not afraid to directly confront issues of
failure, lack of connectedness, depression, etc., incorporating even the
negatives into a roadmap that leads inevitably to a higher place for the
person seeking it.
Each week, an essay will present some of the themes from the Parsha taken
from Nesivos Shalom on Chumash.
If you'd like, you can see the list of all archived Nesivos Shalom articles, or the index to all archived Torah Portion articles.
