Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kook - Orot 1920 - First Edition - Fundamental Work on Hebrew Nationality and Revival / HaTechiyah HaShlemah o Techiyat HaKodesh, Jerusalem 1920 First Edition

Two works by Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kook - first editions, Jerusalem 1920.

Orot A. Orot M'Ofel B. Orot HaTechiyah. Matters regarding building the Jewish people in its revival and settlement in the Holy Land. By Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak HaKohen Kook. Jerusalem, published by Degel Yerushalayim, 1920. Solomon Press.

Among Rabbi Kook's first works about nationality and the Land of Israel, the book was edited by his son Rabbi Tzvi Yehudah HaKohen Kook. [From his introduction: 'From the holy writings of my father, the rabbi, shlit"a, the publication has been delayed due to the war ... the chapters ... were written over the first two years of the war, while my father, the rabbi, was staying in Switzerland.']

When it became known, the work caused a storm and opposition in the Eidah HaChareidit. Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld and Rabbi Yitzchak Yerucham Diskin came out with a special proclamation against the work. Following this book's publication, another work came out, called Kol HaShofar [Jerusalem, 1920], with sharp words against Rabbi Kook. [4], 123, [1] page, 18 cm. Not bound.

HaTechiyah HaShlemah o Techiyat HaKodesh, by Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak HaKohen Kook, important work by Rabbi A. Y. Kook about the revival of our people which must be a complete revival, a revival of the body and a revival of the soul, a revival of the mundane and a revival of the holy. Jerusalem, published by Degel Yerushalayim, 1920. [2] 6 pages, 14 cm. Sheets uncut at the press.
