In commemoration of the 30th Yartzeit of Rabbi Yosef Soloveitchik (on 18 Nissan), widely known as The Rav, this morning we present the third of three prongs of his momentous impact on Jewish learning and life. Today we focus on The Rav's character and personality; his superb moral sensitivity, his intellectual integrity and humility, and his illuminating passion.

To learn more about The Rav's life, work, and impact, please see the essays in this edition of "Jewish Action":

The most accessible of The Rav's published works are "On Repentance" edited by Pinchas Peli, "Reflections of the Rav" edited by Abraham Besdin, and "The Rav: The World of Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik" edited by Aaron Rakeffet-Rothkoff.
