Roots & Branches Rabbi Steven Fisdel

Rabbi Fisdel started writing Roots and Branches in 2013. With a spiritual sense of urgency, he completed the final chapter on April 13, 2019. Less than two weeks later, he passed away of natural and unclear causes. This book, his greatest achievement, has the potential of helping millions understand our existence and why Life is a gift from God. As with the human anatomy comprising organs, ligaments and vessels, Roots and Branches focuses on the anatomy of Creation as taught in the Kabbalah. On a profound yet clear level, Rabbi Fisdel digs deeply into the multiple components of the Kabbalah's Tree of Life - particularly its Ten Sephirot - that are integral to our growth during our time on Earth. Contemplating the intricacy of the anatomy of Creation helps us better understand why we're here: our Soul Purpose, the bigger picture of how we came about and most importantly, our individual roles on the planet in the complete stage production of Life, conducted by God. Without faith in ourselves and our Soul mission, and ignoring the help we continuously receive from the Unseen, we risk losing our purpose of being born. This book helps readers achieve greater understanding of our existence.
