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.

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.

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