Sinai, You were there by Rav Yitzchok Alster

Sinai presents an in-depth understanding of the Sinaitic revelation that took place on Chag Hashavuos, in a new light.

This light, the light from the ohr ha’ganuz (the hidden light) was originally revealed in the sifrei Maharal.

After centuries of neglect, it was rekindled for the Torah world by the appearance of the famous maamarim of Hagaon Harav Yitzchok Hutner, zt”l, and recorded in his sefarim, Pachad Yitzchok.

“He was planted in this generation to bring light to the world and all who dwell in it — a new light”

(From the inscription on his tombstone)

Several compositions on the days of the Omer and Geirus are included.

Rav Moshe Shternbuch:

A commentary to enlighten the hearts of the probers of Torah. The spirit of Rav Hutner is evident.

Rav Aaron Schechter:

He has plumbed the depths of the deep waters of Torah, and drawn its secrets, with acumen and richness.

Rav Yonasan David:

I sensed the aroma of the perfume shop of my father-in-law’s Torah, transmitted with sweetness and wisdom.

Rav Moshe Shapiro:

His very being is suffused to the source – the well of pure waters, the Torah of Rav Yitzchok Hutner.
Rav Alster himself has become a well of pure waters.
