The JPS Rashi Discussion Torah Commentary

3.6/5 ( ratings)

Rashi, the medieval French rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki , authored monumental commentaries on the Hebrew Bible and the Babylonian Talmud.

Steven and Sarah Levy quote from the biblical text in both Hebrew and English, highlight Rashi’s comments relating to the parashah, and delve into his perceptive moral messages in the context of twenty-first-century dilemmas. Each portion features three essays with analysis and discussion questions that draw on universal human experiences, enabling families and Shabbat study groups to deepen their understanding of Rashi and the portion over the three Sabbath meals.
