Rabbi Eliyahu Dessler writes that there are different flows of holiness that come into the world at different times of the year. Therefore, it follows that each day on the Jewish calendar has a special spiritual character.

Today in Jewish History gives readers both the opportunity to enjoy a concise daily Jewish history lesson as well as a feel for what makes each day special.

“Rabbi Landis has collected enormously interesting and significant vignettes of Jewish history to correspond to every day of the year.”

Rabbi Berel Wein

“Our history is our destiny, and I’m sure that this book will whet the palette of the masses to want more in the study of Jewish history specifically and Torah study in general.”

Rabbi Steven Burg, CEO Aish International
