AbrahamIsaac Kook (1865–1935) was the first Ashkenazi chief rabbi of the British Mandatory Palestine, the founder of the Religious Zionist Yeshiva Merkaz HaRav, and the ReligiousZionism denomination, Jewish thinker, Halachist, Kabbalist and a renowned Torah scholar. He is known in Hebrew as הרב אברהם יצחק הכהן קוק HaRav Avraham Yitzchak HaCohen Kook, and by the acronym הראיה (HaRaAYaH), or simply as \"HaRav.\" He was oneof the most celebrated and influential rabbis of the 20th century Rav Kook was born in Griva, Latvia in 1865.His father was a student of the Volozhin Yeshiva, the center of \'mitnagdut,\'whereas his maternal grandfather was a memeber of the Hassidic movement. Heentered the Volozhin Yeshiva in 1884, where he became close to the RoshHaYeshiva, Rav Naftali Zvi Yehuda Berlin (the Netziv). Already in his youth, hewas well-known as a prodigy. At the age of 23, he entered his first rabbinicalposition. Between 1901 and 1904, he published three articles which anticipatethe fully-developed philosophy which he developed in the Land of Israel. In1904, he came to the Land of Israel to assume the rabbinical post in Jaffa,which also included responsibility for the new secular Zionist agriculturalsettlements nearby. His influence on people in different walks of life wasalready noticeable, as he attempted to introduce Torah and Halakha into thelife of the city and the settlements. The outbreak of the First World Warcaught him in Europe, and he was forced to remain in London and Switzerland forthe remainder of the war. While there, he was involved in the activities whichled to the Balfour Declaration. Upon returning, he was appointed the Rav of Jerusalem,and soon after, as first Chief Rabbi of Israel (though the state had not yetbeen been born). Rav Kook was a man of Halakha in the strictest sense, while atthe same time possessing an unusual openness to new ideas. This drew manyreligious and nonreligious people to him, but also led to widespreadmisunderstanding of his ideas. He wrote prolifically on both Halakha and JewishThought, and his books and personality continued to influence many even afterhis death in Jerusalem in 1935. His authority and influence continue to thisday. Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kook(1865-1935), first Chief Rabbi of the holy land, was a Talmudic genius, acommunal leader, a saintly personality, an impassioned visionary, a fighter forsocial justice, a poet and–most of all–a mystic. He was also a deeplyoriginal thinker, the breadth, inclusive spirit and transcendent ecstasy ofwhose teachings embrace the entirety of creation. Rabbi Kook’s teachings are exalted, piercingand universal. “From the well of kindness,” he proclaims, “yourlove for humanity must burst forth–not as an arbitrary obligation, for then itwould lose the most clear aspect of its brilliance, but as a powerful movementof the spirit within you.” Rabbi Kook was a poet of the soul and aspokesperson for a complete human spirit that embraces contradiction, thatreconciles the poles of this-worldly and other-worldly experience. Hiswritings celebrate the union of legalism and poetry, particularism and universalism,faith hidden in atheism and atheism hidden in faith, the spirit revealed fromthe flesh, and beauty revealed through ugliness. Rabbi Kook’s writings are thegifts of a universal teacher. Although he is principally known to theEnglish-speaking world for his teachings on repentance and Zionism, he was apolymath who addressed every possible topic, and always brilliantly: poetry andwar, divine immanence and evolution, social justice and aesthetics. All ofthese caught his attention and were refracted through his ever-searching mindand soaring soul. Rabbi Kook sang of universal creativity, of an unceasingfecundity that is the natural song of all being. He championed the poetic andcreative spirit within each individual. “Every time our heart beatswith a true expression of spirituality,” he wrote, “every time a new andexalted thought is born, we hear the likeness of a Godly angel’s voice at thedoors of our soul asking that we allow him entry so that he may appear to us inthe totality of his beauty.” Ultimately, Rabbi Kook’s robust message is oneof life and growth, hope and optimism. “Death is a false phenomenon,” hetaught, and “to the degree that the quantity of movement toward wholenessgrows, evil decreases and goodness is revealed.”
