Seeking God, Seeking Ourselves: Teshuvah in the Thought of Rav Aharon Lichtenstein, 1 of 4

In this class we will examine the key themes in the published Teshuva lectures, both in English and Hebrew, of the late Rabbi Aharon Lichtenstein, one of the intellectual thought leaders of the Modern-Orthodox world in the last half century. We will look for recurring patterns and concepts, how these themes integrate with R. Lichtenstein's broader world view and some comparisons and contrasts to other thinkers on repentance such as Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik and Rabbi Yitzhak Hutner.
