Product Description
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.

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.

To better accommodate today's English speaking public, we proudly present this new translation, designed to clearly and accurately convey the meaning of the original text, in its entirety.

In Sefer Bemidbar the deeper meaning of such concepts as Sotah, Nazir, Pesach Sheni, Challah, Tzitzis, and Parah Aduma, among others, is presented. There is new insight, for example, into the personalities of Korach, Balak, and Pinchas, and a better understanding of the Meraglim, the divison of the Land and Bilam's blessings. Rav Hirsch's penetrating analysis of the events and underlying ideas that highlight Sefer Bemidbar are at once original, illuminating, and inspiring.

We invite you to open the new Hirsch Chumash and experience the length and breadth of this magnificent work as never before.
