Title: To focus on the good
Review: These stories and anecdotes of one of the great religious speakers of Jerusalem reveal his warm and humorous personality and his great devotion to Torah.An example of a story. A great scholar on his death- bed recites the confessional outloud and realizes he wishes everyone to admire him in this , understands then that in his final act of piety it is his yetzer hara his evil impulse which is most strong.It is paradoxical insights of this kind and not the stories which have obvious and pat conclusions which make this work interesting.
