The book offers advice on human interrelationships such as between parent and child, husband and wife, employer and employee. It speaks to the heart as well as the mind. It goes beyond abstract ethics concepts and presents a guide to Jewish living.
Pele Yoetz is a classical moral treatise and compilation of essential Jewish concepts organized according to topics following the order of the Hebrew alphabet.
