This illustrated compendium of Jewish folktales features 12 stories of magical events in which Rabbis become the instruments of divine miracles. In 'The Enchanted Menorah', for example, Rabbi Israel is lost in the forest but is guided home by a mysterious figure bearing a candle lit from the Rabbi's own menorah. Bringing together stories from Jewish traditions in different parts of the world, each is linked to a holiday or special day, the significance of which is explained in an afterword.
