House of Rabbi Kook, Jerusalem

Rabbi Abraham Isaac Ha-cohen Kook was a revolutionary thinker who was eminent for bringing reform in Jewish agriculture. This great personality was also known for his brilliant poetry. Visit his house at Ha-Rav Kook and get a better insight on his works. Consisting of modest furniture including a rickety table, chair and a closet, this place houses Rabbi Kook's books (not original), the letter written by him to the famous poet Hayyim Nahman Bialik, and a wall displaying experts from his writings. The first exquisite rug woven by Bezalel School of Arts and Crafts hangs on the wall. While the Yeshivah hall is the place where Rabbi Kook taught his students. Intriguing in it own unique way, this place is a must-visit for those interested in Jewish literature and culture.
