Who Was The Baal Shem Tov? Rabbi Israel Ben Eliezer (17001760), Also Known As The Besht, Was The Legendary Founder Of The Hasidic Movement. He Taught That Humans Must Worship And Cling To God, Not Only During The Practice Of Religious Observances, But In All Aspects Of Life Business, Social Contacts, And Daily Affairs. One Must Strive For The Salvation Of One'S Individual Soul In Order To Bring About The Redemption Of The World. Little Historical Information Is Known About The Baal Shem Tov. He Did Not Put His Teachings Into Writing, And He Opposed The Attempts Of Others To Publish His Teachings. The First Known Document About The Baal Shem Tov, Shivhei Habesht, Was Published In Hebrew In 1814, Just Fiftyfour Years After His Death. This Work Contained 251 Tales About The Baal Shem Tov.
