Qu'est-ce que le mouvement hassidique, sinon une protestation contre la solitude ? Dans l'Europe centrale du XVIIIe siècle où la misère et l'angoisse accablent le peuple juif, les Maîtres hassidiques lancent un appel puissant à l'espérance, au bonheur, à l'amitié, apportant aux déracinés et aux victimes le sentiment d'exister au sein de l'histoire juive, leur faisant redécouvrir leurs propres racines et leur propre profondeur. Pourtant, ces Maîtres dont le témoignage, les actes et les paroles sont une invitation à l'allégresse et à la célébration, semblent tous en proie à une mélancolie proche du désespoir. Mais chacun d'eux dispose d'armes particulières : sagesse de l'un, ferveur de l'autre, humilité, colère, compassion, rire, silence même. Dans ce deuxième tome de Célébration hassidique, Elie Wiesel nous révèle tout à la fois les circonstances et le sens de ce combat contre la mélancolie mené par neuf Maîtres hassidiques. La joie, la foi, l'espérance sont-elles possibles quand triomphe la mort ? Voici la réponse de Rabbi Moshe Leib de Sassov : "Vous voulez trouver le feu ? Cherchez-le dans la cendre."
