This was my very favourite book of the Tanakh. Purim, the festival around Esther, was only semi-religious and involved presents, lots of food and making a hell of a lot of noise with football rattles whenever the evil Haman's name was called. When I got older, I read the commentaries and saw the story in a less simplistic way and wondered just how much of it was true and how much rabbis would justify anything they felt strongly was part of their faith.

NO OF PAGES: 158 SUB CAT I: Writings SUB CAT II: SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: In the Megillah, G-d's name does not appear, but when all was done, His presence was recognized everywhere. Because He does not appear in the Megillah, He is there more meaningfully than in any other sacred book. It is for us to find Him in every event.NOTES: SUBTITLE: The Book of Esther-A new translation with a commentary anthologized from Talmudic, Midrashic, and Rabbinic sources.

NO OF PAGES: 154 SUB CAT I: Commentary SUB CAT II: Writings SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: The Book of Ruth is a story of loyalty and kindness, but it is much more. Beneath the story of the Moabitess who sought refuge under the Wings of the Divine Presence, the mother-in-law who nurtured her spiritually and guided her materially, the aged judge who married her in the last act of a great life, it is the story of the hidden spark of the Messiah. From humblest origins, through mysterious pathways, it emerged in the persons of Ruth and Boaz. Deceptive in its simplicity, profound in its depth - the Book of Ruth.NOTES: Purchased from Mesorah Publications, Ltd. SUBTITLE: A new translation with a commentary anthologized from Talmudic, Midrashic and Rabbinic sources… (altro)
