Nefesh Chaya: The Unique Avodas Hashaem of the Jewish Woman

To better understand and fully appreciate the unique role of a Jewish woman, one must consider not only the big picture but the biggest picture of all: nothing less than the purpose of creation.

The profundity and essential meaning of Jewish womanhood lies at the heart of Nefesh Chaya: The Unique Avodas HaShem of the Jewish Woman.

The author employs his dynamic approach to Torah Judaism to shed light on such fundamental concepts as: a woman s essential power, the deeper meanings of modesty, the importance of prayer, a woman s role in education, the image of a Jewish mother, creating a sanctuary in the home, and more.

The book is fittingly named after the author s wife, Rebbetzin Chaya Pincus, and concludes with an eloquent tribute to both her and their daughter Miriam Pincus. All three Rabbi Pincus, his wife, and their daughter perished in a tragic auto accident, in April, 2001.

Combining wit, wisdom, an informal, personal style, along with fascinating and inspiring Talmudic insights, this innovative work reveals the precious heart and soul of what it means to be a Jewish woman.

Rav Shimshon Dovid Pincus was a world-renowned speaker and educator who inspired and influenced Jewish audiences around the world in the decades he spent traveling, gracing seminars, classrooms, lecture halls, week-end retreats and special events.

His profound teachings appear in print under the series heading: Nefesh Shimshon.
