Click here to see inside pages

A groundbreaking book that explores one aspect of each Torah portion to help readers find personal meaning and practical application in the realm of recovery from addiction. Recovery in the Torah offers guidance to those who have struggled with addictive behavior, their acquaintances, and anyone who seeks spiritual clarity in a chaotic and uncertain world.

In this searingly powerful collection of thoughts on the weekly Torah portion, Rabbi Dr. Chaim Tureff shares with us a new perspective… Recovery in the Torah [reveals] how Torah messages can assist with recovery. Even one who has never been tempted by prohibited substances can reap deep benefits [from this] enlightening and memorable commentary.

We all sorely miss the illumination and instruction of Rabbi Doctor Abraham J. Twerski; I venture that he would applaud the appearance of this volume.

–Rabbi Hanoch Teller, internationally acclaimed motivational speaker
