Rabbi Mattisyahu Salomon's influence radiates far beyond his "headquarters" as Mashgiach of Lakewood's Beth Medrash Govoha. Thinker, speaker, guide, and inspirational leader, Rabbi Salomon has touched, enriched, and changed countless lives.

sked how he can possibly prepare for his almost endless string of public addresses and private counseling, he replies with his ready smile, "I have been preparing for thirty years." Indeed, his every talk reflects his lifetime pursuit of wisdom and service of G-d.

Now, for the first time, this great man's thought is captured between the covers of a book for English-speaking readers. Brilliantly prepared for publication by Rabbi Yaakov Yosef Reinman in consultation with the Mashgiach, these essays present his ideas in his own "voice" on a variety of topics- that effect everyone's relationship with his G-d, his fellows and himself.

The writing is beautiful. the expression is eloquent. The message is relevant. This book is both timeless and timely - a rare value for every jewish home.
