Since the Maggid\'s death in 1804, his parables have been the subject of many scholarly works. Now, in The Maggid of Dubno and his Parables, Dr. Benno Heinemann presents to the Jewish reader the first comprehensive popular anthology of the Maggid\'s parables in English compiled from a strictly traditional point of view.
Over and over again the Maggid of Dubno reproved and reproached his people for the - routine manner in which they performed their devotions on the High Holidays. He never ceased to warn his listeners that the mere beating of the breast while reciting the Confession of Sins, mechanically performed without heartfelt self-examination and without the sincere desire to mend one’s ways, would never bring that Heavenly forgiveness for which we all hope in the Days of Awe.
With a bibliography, glossary and index
