Maharal

Prague, 1609: The Maharal passed away.

Everyone loves a story from the Maharal… and of course, his famous Golem made out of clay.  What about a story of a Golem made out of “wax”? Or, how about a story from the Maharal ‘without’ any Golem whatsoever? It’s no less dramatic! Read about the Maharal’s visit to the emperor, Rudolf II, and their secretive chat.
