I was looking to find sources that comment on Tzidkas HaTzaddik no. 43 and came across this great essay. True, I am biased - anyone who quotes both Reb Tzadok and RAEK in the same essay will automatically be in my good graces - but the essay is phenomenal independent of that factor.

I liked this essay too(it looks like it's part of a forthcoming book).
ReplyDeleteSome of the ideas in this essay are also in his "The Pursuit Of Perfection: Vice Or Virtue In Judaism?" and in other essays on his website.
Related to R. Tzadok,the Ishbitzer, and R. Hutner, see footnotes in Dovid Bashevkin's "What to Wear to a Sin"(Torah Musing, 7/21/13).
