Summary Annotation In this volume, Rabbi Shai Held's Torah essays - two for each weekly portion - open new horizons in Jewish biblical commentary. Held probes the portions in bold, original and provocative ways. He mines Talmud and midrashim, great writers of world literature and astute commentators of other religious backgrounds to ponder fundamental questions about God, human nature and what it means to be a religious person in the modern world.
