The "Gur Arye," Maharal 's supercommentary on the classic biblical commentator Rashi, is full of surprises, brimming with unique thoughts and diversions into rarely discussed Torah ideas. Kabbala is seamlessly woven into his text, and

- Why did Moshe marry a non-Jew?
- When is it time to stop praying?

The author has preserved the Maharal's unique style, basing his selections on the ethical content, uniqueness of thought, and the dynamic theological and Kabbalistic concepts pervading this magnificent work.
