Explore the origin and inner meaning of the phrase “The King is in the Field,” revealing how Elul is not just a time of fear or introspection, but of divine intimacy, mercy, and radical closeness. With Chassidic depth and personal honesty, each episode opens a window into the soul’s yearning and the profound truth that even when we feel distant, Hashem is nearer than we think.
