{"product_id":"2940158834783","title":"The Simple Servant","description":"The Simple Servant is part of the classic, legendary treatise known to Chasidim as hemshech Samach-Vov. This series of sixty-one discourses, delivered from the beginning of 5666 through the winter of 5668 (1905-1907), was revolutionary in its wealth of topics and profundity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the first translation into English of a discourse in this historical series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe discourse elaborates upon three of personalities with distinct approaches to devine service: 1) The child of G-d whose commitment to g-d requires no work on his part, no meditation or introspection- yet is natural. 2) The loyal servant of G-d who, although remaining a distinct entity with some self awareness and identity, is motivated by his appreciation of, and love for, G-d, and therefore derives great pleasure and joy from doing the will of G-d. 3) The Simple Servant of G-d- who is driven by his acceptance of the yoke of heaven, is not motivated by an overwhelming love for G-d, and has no pleasure in the work he does. Yet he does his work consistently because he has no other identity outside of being a servant of G-d.","brand":"Kehot Publication Society","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47182743535856,"sku":"2940158834783","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940158834783_p0.jpg?v=1764120832","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940158834783","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
