Description
 
Moreinu Dr. Raphael Moller was called 'the malach Raphael' - a healer of bodies, souls, and communities. A great-grandson of Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch, he lived up to his forebearer's vision as a true 'Mensch-Yisrael' in the abundant roles he filled:   A community leader in pre-war Hamburg, battling to uphold Torah ideals   The decades-long President of Washington Heights' famed kehillah, K'hal Adath Jeshurun, where he helped shape and uplift the fledgling community after the Holocaust   Confidante of Rav Aharon Kotler, the Chazon Ish, the Satmar Rebbe, and other Gedolim, with whom he collaborated on initiatives to preserve Klal Yisrael   An outstanding talmid chacham, who could converse equally with rabbanim and laymen on any topic in Shas   A beloved physician, who was a pioneer in treating not just illnesses but the whole person, and whose compassion for his patients was legendary   A devoted father of a large family, whose progeny all continued his life's work of servicing the klal  Dr. Moller's journey took him from his idyllic upbringing in Hamburg, Germany, to a grueling concentration camp incarceration after Kristallnacht, and then onto wartime deprivation in England. When at long last he finally reached American shores, he dedicated himself to Am Yisrael as a beloved doctor and as a klal leader, exerting great influence across the globe. Read and be inspired by this book about an extraordinary human being who before making any decision stopped and asked himself, 'What does Hashem want from me at this very moment?'
