Be'er Hagolah is the Maharal of Prague's answer to those who read the aggados of Chazal literally and then dismiss them as impossible. His argument is that the aggados carry their meaning below the surface, and he works through the hardest examples one by one. See our Jewish Thought collection . Why Read It in English? The Maharal's Hebrew is among the most demanding in Jewish thought. Even strong readers slow down considerably. An English edition with explanation makes the argument available to a reader who would otherwise never get through it. That is what this 279 page volume is for. Who Should Read It? Anyone who has been troubled by an aggadah that seems impossible to take at face value, and anyone interested in how Chazal are meant to be read. It is written in English throughout with no Hebrew required. Browse our Mussar collection for related material. Shipping, Pickup and Returns Be'er Hagolah is $30.99 at Eichlers.
