,Rav Eliyahu Meir Klugman, a Rosh Yeshiva and
Moreh Horaah in Jerusalem and the author
of Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch -- Architect of
Torah Judaism for the Modern World, Artscroll, 1966, points out the following:
Clear knowledge and understanding of Rav Hirsch's
views, insights and formulations can help one
respond intelligently to most issues in Orthodox
Jewish life. From Bnei Brak and Lakewood to
Teaneck and Woodmere, from FFB to Baal Teshuva,
from Chazon Ish devotee to modern Orthodox Jew,
Rav Hirsch's teachings form an integral part of
the world-view of the Torah Jew in the modern
world, regardless of whether one takes an active role in that world or not.[i]
