Kabbalah and the Holoucaust: Healing a Broken Cosmos

By Michael Leo Samuel

Kabbalah and the Holocaust: Healing a Broken Cosmos by Rabbi Dr. Michael Leo Samuel

A profound and courageous contribution to post-Holocaust theology. Confronting the abyss of Auschwitz, it illuminates a path toward healing, moral responsibility, and spiritual renewal.

As the child of a Holocaust survivor, Rabbi Samuel writes with personal urgency and theological depth. Drawing on the Lurianic Kabbalistic concepts of Tzimtzum, Shevirat Ha-Kelim, and Tikkun Olam, he explores how faith, Divine hiddenness, and human responsibility can coexist after history's greatest rupture.

Blending Jewish mysticism with the voices of survivors and major thinkers-including Elie Wiesel, Viktor Frankl, Hannah Arendt, Emil Fackenheim, and Melissa Raphael-Samuel reframes the Holocaust not as the death of theology, but as a profound call to ethical and spiritual partnership in repairing a shattered world.

Kabbalah and the Holocaust: Healing a Broken Cosmos is a transformative work that heals, challenges, and elevates; essential reading for anyone seeking meaning, faith, and moral clarity after catastrophe.
