Foundation of Fear (Yesod HaYirah): A Guide to Revering God

In this classic work of musar, an anonymous medieval Jewish sage explores the essence of 'yirah'-commonly translated as 'fear' or 'reverence' of God.

Blending poetry and philosophy, the book offers profound insights into love, companionship, decision-making, and proper social conduct. Readers will find valuable Jewish wisdom that can enrich their lives and deepen their understanding.

The original Hebrew text is presented alongside an accessible English translation.

The book is attributed to a number of Jewish scholars, including Rabbi Yosef Qimhi (father of Radaq/Radak).
