About the Derech Hashem on TorahSages
4 chelakim · 27 perakim
Derech Hashem was written by the Ramchal, Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto (1707–1746), the author of Mesillat Yesharim. It sets out the foundations of emunah in order, each built on the one before it, in four parts: the first on the Creator, the purpose of creation, mankind and bechirah; the second on hashgachah, over each person and over Israel and the nations; the third on the soul, ruach hakodesh and nevuah; and the fourth on avodat Hashem — Torah learning, ahavah and yirah, tefillah and the order of the day, and the mitzvot of the times of the year. It is learned in yeshivot and chaburot as a clear way into the yesodot of emunah.
TorahSages has the complete Derech Hashem in Hebrew, all four parts in 27 chapters.
