Personally I find virtually all of RSRH's writings relevant to our
generation and wish that more people would spend time reading and
studying. If you want to gain insight into the
"events" that occur during the Jewish months, then
read his essays on each month that are in Volumes I and II of the
Collected Writings of RSRH. If you want striking insights into
Chumash, then read his commentary on the Torah, etc. <br><br>
An entire volume of the Collected Writings (Volume VII) is devoted
to education.<br><br>
The entire essay Lessons from Yaakov and Esau can be read at <br><br>
