Jerusalem, IL

For over two decades Rabbi Hanoch Teller has been a sought-after tour guide at the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem. His Holocaust expertise, deep humanity and sensitivity, and his uncanny ability to tell just the right story at the right time, transform the infinite banality of horror into an intensely personal encounter with the Destruction of European Jewry.The Holocaust contains a minefield of dilemmas that may be beyond the scope of and abused by those unschooled and insensitive to Torah ideology. The wisdom and direction that Hanoch Teller dispenses in his riveting and instructive tour is not only a much-needed beacon of light, but a reassuring fortress of faith that is masterfully conveyed.
