Summary: For Spinoza Fans
Comment: Important for its non-conventional translations and its profound Hebrew etymologically-based commentary which affords many a Spinozistic innsight. There is much you will not agree with or even be turned-off. However, partake of the work as you would a pomegranate; relish the flesh, but spit-out the pits.

Also recommended to be used with Hirsch:

Gesenius 'Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament Scriptures' - ISDN 0801037360.

James Strong 'The Comprehensive Concordance of the Bible' - ISBN 0529063344.

Summary: Tremendous insight and clarity, a work of a true genius!
Comment: R. Hirsch's goal is to learn the Torah from itself. He shows you through an intricate dissection of the text how, when read very carefully, the Torah provides the same conclusions as taught in the Talmud. The logic is compelling. I find studying his commentary to be intellectually breathtaking. Additionally he takes you across the entire landscape of Jewish law providing both a logical and ethical support. Above all he reminds you what a tremendous gift Jews have and what it means to be a Mensch!

Summary: Hirsch's commentary is precise, powerfull and illuminating
Comment: Hirsch's natural genius, rigorous religious education and secular studies provides indepth insight into the five books of Moses. He takes the reader deep inside the meaning of the book; constantly providing illumintaing insights from the Oral Law to the Shulchan Aruch. His knowledge base is vast and his writing ability is surgical.
