Soul of Jerusalem

What are you willing to wait for?
I'm not going to sit and wait for a bagel for two hours. It's not worth it. Why? Because life is more important.
How long will you sit and wait for a friend? You'll sit as long as they are important to you. Some friends are "two-hours" important to you, others are "three-hours." Another is even "five-hours" important. But I'm not going to sit for three days.

Can you imagine waiting for somebody 2,000 years?
We've been waiting for Yerushalayim for 2,000 years.
We've been thinking about Yerushalayim for 2,000 years.
The truth is that I'm always thinking about Yerushalayim. It is the one place I never stop thinking about.
You can talk to me about anything in the world, but deep, deep inside, I don't stop thinking about the 6 million. I can't.
How can you forget them for one second?
How can you forget Yerushalayim for one second?

The Soul of Jerusalem is closely based on Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach zt"ls wisdom and inspiration.

In this remarkable volume, we are taken to the Holy Wall.

In this life-changing work, we will hear the singing of the Levites, feel the crying of exile, and be inspired by the trumpet of the Great Day to come.

Masterfully adapted by Rabbi Shlomo Katz (renowned musician and creator of the best-selling and acclaimed The Soul of Chanukah: Teachings of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach), these teachings touch the soul.
