From 1610 until the Holocaust, an Eastern European Jewish home had a Tz'enah Ur'enah on its Shabbos table. At least 210 editions of Rabbi Yaakov Ashkenazi's classic combining Torah commentary, Midrashic insights, and ethical teachings on the weekly sidrah have appeared. Now, it is available in this new, faithful, beautiful translation, illustrated with woodcuts from the 1726 Frankfurt edition. An inseparable companion on Friday nights, Shabbos afternoons, or any other time. The perfect gift for any occasion. Includes weekly and festival Haftaros, five Megillos, the story of Chanukah and of Tishah B'Av. Translated by Miriam Stark Zakon. Complete in two handsome volumes.
