Hirsch Chumash - Bereishis

"<p><dd>Since it first appeared, nearly 150 years ago, the Hirsch Commentary on Chumash has gained worldwide popularity for the breathtaking scope of insight and information it offers to scholar, student, and layman alike.</dd></p> <p><dd>This expansive work combines history, halacha, hashkafa, and Ta'amei HaMitzvos into one magnificent pattern that stretches brilliantly across all of Chamisha Chumshai Torah. And underlying the commentary is Rav Hirsch's unique approach to Lashon HaKrah: his profound analysis of the letters, root words, and structure of words found in Chumash. </dd></p> <p><dd>Nowhere are these qualities as clearly evident as they are in Sefer Bereishis. His approach to Ma'aseh Bereishis, world history as seen through Birchas Noach, Mitzvas Milah, the Akeidah, the conflict between Yaakov and Eisav, Yosef and his brothers, Birchas Yaakov, and so much more - will utterly transform your understanding of these concepts, personalities, and events. </dd></p>
