Full Description
Newly revised edition in a beautiful slipcased set!
In addition to his monumental commentary on the Torah, Ramban
(Nachmanides) authored many other highly significant works for which he
is equally renowned. These writings are eternal testimonies to his
brilliance in conveying true Torah thought -- illuminating fundamental
principles of our faith, exploring the ultimate meaning in human life,
and strengthening our conviction in the ultimate destiny of the Jewish
people.
These writings have been translated and elucidated by a foremost
authority on Ramban, Rabbi C. Chavel. They are truly monumental
contributions to those "thirsting for the word of Hashem" and should
grace the bookshelves in every Jewish home.
