years of the popular Internet parashat hashavua commentary, Torat
Chayim. Living Torah includes over 300 unique perspectives from rabbis,
cantors, lay leaders, and other Jewish professionals.
A Taste of Torah, by Rabbi Ronald Isaacs, is a brilliant follow-up to
the bestselling work A Taste of Text by the same author. In A Taste of
Torah, Rabbi Isaacs provides an introduction to the technique of Torah
study and bible commentary. He focuses on thirteen stories from the
Torah and offers both his own commentary as well as that of historic and
contemporary scholars. A Taste of Torah is a wonderful text for a high
school or adult-study class.
The Torah Commentary for Our Times, by Rabbi Harvey Fields, is one of
the most beloved commentaries around. It is perfect for anyone
preparing a d'var Torah or studying Torah, from bar and bat mitzvah
students to board members to clergy. The Torah Commentary for Our Times
comes in three volumes, each of which can be purchased separately for
$20.00. It is also available in a set, an ideal gift for anyone
interested in the study of Torah.
The most popular Torah commentary in North America, The Torah: A
Modern Commentary, edited by W. Gunther Plaut, was revised last year and
features updated language and layout. The Torah: A Modern Commentary
can be found in the pews of most Reform synagogues in the world. If you
are interested in continuing your studies after temple of Friday or
Saturday, this is the perfect Torah commentary for you. This title is
available in hardcover for $60.00 or as a paperback travel edition for
$30.00. Both are on sale this week.
