520    Abraham Joshua Heschel was one of the most revered 
       religious leaders of the 20th century, and "God in Search 
       of Man "and its companion volume," Man Is Not Alone," two 
       of his most important books, are classics of modern Jewish
       theology. "God in Search of Man" combines scholarship with
       lucidity, reverence, and compassion as Dr. Heschel 
       discusses not man's search for God but God's for man--the 
       notion of a Chosen People, an idea which, he writes, 
       "signifies not a quality inherent in the people but a 
       relationship between the people and God." It is an 
       extraordinary description of the nature of Biblical 
       thought, and how that thought becomes faith
