The 613th Commandment: An Analysis of the Mitzvah to Write a Sefer Torah (Derush Vechiddush) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The 613th Commandment was an excellent book penetrating the questions of a scholarly, rabbinic mind. I'll admit I expected a book outlining all the rules governing the path to fulfilling the mitzvah of writing a Sefer Torah. Those rules were not expounded, but rather most of the questions one may ask...

Arcane Lore: "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About the Occult But Were Afraid to Ask" Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I'm not quite sure how to phrase my review of this unusual book. I liked it, as it was well written, well researched, and an enjoyable read.

The Scribe: Life, Death and Gender Politics in Ancient Egypt Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)From the first sentence of 'The Scribe' I felt myself transported to a different world.
