For those interested in Jewish history and spirituality

Uncovers the teachings of the Baal Shem Tov's legacy

You will find joy and love at the heart of faith

Discover the inspiring life of Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov through captivating stories.

This is a life, in stories, of Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov (1700-1760), the founder of Hasidism. The Baal Shem Tov, or the Besht, as he is commonly called, led a revival in Judaism that put love and joy at the center of religious life and championed the piety of the common folk against the rabbinic establishment. He has been recognized as one of the greatest teachers in Jewish history, and much of what is alive and vibrant in Judaism today, in all denominations, derives from his inspiration. Abraham Joshua Heschel, who was descended from several illustrious Hasidic dynasties, wrote:
