The Faith of the Mithnagdim

- Rabbinic Responses to Hasidic Rapture

About The Faith of the Mithnagdim

In Nadler's account, Mithnagdism emerges as a highly developed religious outlook that is essentially conservative, deeply dualistic, and profoundly pessimistic about humanity's spiritual potential-all in stark contrast to Hasidism's optimism and aggressive encouragement of mysticism and religious rapture among its followers.
