תיאור

You know and use the Stone Edition, which has
become the standard English-language Chumash. But what about the rest of the
Written Torah, the Prophets and the Writings? Where can we go for a sweeping
understanding of the text, as understood by the Sages and the classic
commentators ù presented in a way that makes it both accessible and enjoyable to
scholar and layman alike?
The first volume of the Rubin Edition ù Joshua/Judges ùprovided the answer.
Thanks to the brilliance of the ArtScroll/Mesorah team of scholars and writers ù
led by Rabbi Nosson Scherman ù the tradition continues, with The Rubin
